Hello and welcome.  Here are a couple of things to keep in mind as we begin the course:

• Please take a little time to browse through the course web pages this week. You'll likely find some helpful information about course assignments and lecture outlines. I do not suggest that you print off the entire web site! Instead, print off those pages that have information you need in written form (i.e., assignment handouts, lecture outlines). There are a lot of pages for me to take care of, so if any of the links are missing, or if you are having difficulties, let me know.

• You can keep on track in the course and assignment due dates by accessing the course schedule. Please consult the schedule for your respective section  for due dates, lecture outlines, and assignment handouts. The course schedule will be updated periodically, so instead of printing it out, be sure to  to check this announcements page and the course schedule weekly for updates.

• There are two required texts for this class, as well as supplementary readings. To access some of the supplementary readings and handouts, you will need a password, so please see me if you missed this during class.

• Lecture outlines and assignment handouts are posted to the course schedule as I revise and develop them (i.e., throughout the semester). I will typically post one or two outlines at a time on the course schedule, so if you find that a particular lecture isn't yet linked, it usually means I haven't posted it yet.

• The first Discussion assignment is due Monday, September 17th IN CLASS. Discussion assignments must be completed before class and you must be present for class discussion to receive credit for the assignment.
