Important Notes

• You can find a lot of important information, such as student drop-in hours (aka office hours) and course grade determination, on the syllabus.
• Class topics and homework information may change over the course of the term. Please treat this schedule as a rough guide for what we'll be focusing on and expect changes as the term progresses.
• Before Class: Complete the readings and/or preparation activities. Class is structured expecting that you have completed these tasks.
• Restricted Access: Most of the links will require a Carleton login to view. If you're external to Carleton and want access, just shoot me an email.
• Revisions: If you are submitting a revision for a deliverable, submit this form to let me and the course staff know where to look for changes.
