Quiz and Exams are re-open
A few students have been having trouble with the quiz and exams on blackboard. Thank you to those who’ve sent me email about the various problems. I’ve re-opened all quizzes and the exam and they will all close on the 15th of December. That’s the final day I can leave the items open and still […]
Thursday lab will start a tad late, say 6:45ish

Exam schedule posted
We will be meeting for a paper final exam, on the 16th at 1:30PM in Morill 134. The exam is open book and open note.
