# Are 'special' lectures that take the entire 50 minutes of class to explain. If you miss one of these lectures without a legitimate and documented excuse, you CANNOT come to my office hours and ask me to explain all of the material to you (unless you have a legitimate and documented reason for your absence). However, if you do attend these lectures and have questions about the material, you CAN, and are encouraged to, come to my office and ask questions, but you MUST do so within 10 days of the lecture. This is to make sure that I have adequate time to meet with students about Newer material and I am not forced to constantly go back and re-teach lecture material because students did not study and forgot the information before the xam.
