The field trip will take place on November 8th and 9th, we will leave in the afternoon of the 8th for Youngstown we will return on November 9th, after the contest, which concludes at 6:30 or so. Only six people will get to go, those six people to be determined by mid-October.
Since I am shortchanging you on the contact hours by cutting the course short on November 6, I will hold longer sessions Mondays starting October 1, eventually as long as 10:30, to simulate the 5 hours of a real contest. We will also schedule a contest tryout on a Saturday from 10 to 3. This will probably be in September or early October and be synchronized with National ACM. (That is, many teams from other Universities will participate also). To alleviate hunger pangs, food will be made available during these longer class periods.
Also, you can always send email with questions and/or to set up an appointment. Usual turnaround for email addressed to the cs address will often be a few hours during the day. Email use is to be preferred over voicemail, which will not be checked as often.
This 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.
(Think of requiring additional time for programming like a runner who needs additional time for the run.)
The last day to withdraw is November 3, 2012.
