ANNOUNCEMENTS



  • CONGRATULATIONS! You are now enrolled in the best, most interesting course ever offered anywhere.


  • FIRST LECTURE TODAY, MONDAY, 30 AUGUST: Lecture will cover the course mechanics, pedagogy, work load, goals and expectations. I won't get into nitty-gritty until Wed, but I will introduce a few key concepts/points


  • LECTURE AND LAB SYLLABUS WON'T BE AVAILABLE UNTIL LATER ON MONDAY, 30 AUGUST: I suggest that you hold -off on printing these even when they become available; they are preliminary and are likely to change over the next week - will discuss in class
