Message:
Im glad you are here. I will do my best to make the course up-to-date, useful and
interesting. You will be expected to read (and think about) the chapters of the texts but
class will not be a simple re-hash of what you read. Lectures will be used to introduce
topics, to highlight key points, and to give you information that cant be given as
effectively any other way.
Regular and prompt attendance is an essential part of the educational experience. All
students are expected to attend every scheduled class on time. Exceptions may be made
for university or work sponsored activities, illnesses, or valid emergency situations. Best
of luck.
