Syllabus

Things for the last few days of the semester

Final exam times:
- MWF 10am class: Exam is Monday, May 3, 8:30 am, in the regular classroom.
- MWF 11am class: Exam is Tuesday, May 4, 1 pm, in the regular classroom.
- Email me by Thursday, April 29 if you want to take the final exam with the other class. I will let people know on Friday, April 30th if the room capacity allows us to do this.
Please fill out the course evaluation survey (10am link | 11am link). This is 100% anonymous, even though it asks you to log-in. Professors cannot see the anonymized responses until after final grades are turned in. If at least 85% of the class fills out the evaluation, I will give everyone in class a bonus point on the final exam. Deadline: Friday, April 30, 11:59pm.
Please fill out the tutoring survey (even if you never came to tutoring). Those who do will receive a bonus point on the final exam. Deadline: Friday, April 30, 11:59pm.
