Power Point Lectures

Some of you will be tempted to just download my Power Point presentations and skip class... DON'T DO IT! These presentations do NOT tell the whole story and will make little to no sense without the accompanying lecture. In addition, not all of the lectures will be posted. The moral of the story: go to class!

These are best used by viewing in slide show mode in Power Point. If you want to print and not use all of your ink, go to PRINT and in the lower left of the box is a drop down menu marked "Color/grayscale" chose grayscale and then print.
