The day for which the readings are relevant to the lectures. College students are adults and can decide how to prepare for themselves.

Example:

4/3/2012: have read Gadamer, pp. 1–27
4/5/2012: have read Gadamer, pp. 28–45

And so on. That’s how most of my professors do it and it’s really effective and clear.
