Class Schedule
The class schedule is a guide to topics that will be discussed and when they will be discussed on a weekly basis. The week begins on a Monday class.
All slide sets are 
files. To save paper and ink, I suggest you do not print slides too far in advance and not before the course begins as changes may be made.
