NOTE: The handouts provided in class or used for assignments can also be
retrieved at this  HANDOUTS LINK.
      
Periodic assignments will appear here. As noted in class, the point totals
DID NOT add up to 770 - Therefore, I've made the Web Exercises (like these
listed here) worth 200 points (instead of 150). There will be MANY opportunities
for points, BUT DO THEM EARLY!!! GET THEM OUT OF THE WAY! THEY WILL GET MORE
DIFFICULT AND THE EXPECTATIONS WILL BE HIGHER as we the term progresses and
we learn more.


NOTE: Assignments due on days that the class does not meet can be placed
in my mailbox on the 8th floor of Zulauf (next to 815).

Or, they can be emailed to me. However, papers emailed to me will be read
online, and they cannot be returned (I cannot print them off), so you
will receive only the grade.
