Best way to reach me is through email or during my office hours. I will try to answer email within 24 hours, with priority given to cs or Blackboard email. However, please do not count on an instant response; I may be otherwise occupied.
Read the text. Only general reading assignments will be given. The class will mostly cover material in the same order as the text book, there may be exceptions however. It is the student's responsibility to maintain an awareness of the material in the text that is currently being covered. Ask the instructor if you are unsure of the text material currently being covered.
The syllabus may be changed during the semester if necesary: changes will be announced in class; they will also show up on the instructor's website.
