Syllabus: PDF

Office hours during finals week:
10:00-12:30    Monday
10:00-2:00      Tuesday
10:00-2:00      Wednesday

I have started to enter the proofs that were presented in class. These can be found here and although this document is only started, I will be updating it today and tomorrow. I will also provide a photocopied list of the proofs that were submitted to me. These will be in a small binder outside my office door for you to read or copy.

4:40pm 12/14 I am rethinking this effort to get all of your proofs typeset. It's taking much longer than I wanted and I still need to get your exam written this evening. I put a blue folder outside my door that contains the photocopies of your proofs that you have submitted. (there are a couple that have not been turned in and if I get time I will try to put something in the folder.)
