It is my goal to have lecture note outlines for each week posted by Friday evening of the preceding week. It is recommended that you use these notes in conjunction with attending class. I will bring hard copies to class on Mondays and after each class I will post the filled-in versions for that day. At the end of the week I'll post the entire week's filled-in notes.
