H1N1 Flu Information

If you have questions connected with grading of homework assignments or exams, please contact your recitation section instructor. You can visit office hours of any of the sections ED1, ED3, ED5 and ED6

If you decided to drop Math. 241:

There is a substitute: Math. 299

For students who are dropping from Math 241 into the second-eight-week course Math 299, the class is starting this week.  For students who were registered by last Thursday, the meeting is today at 4pm in 239 Altgeld (registered students were sent an e-mail).  A large number of students have added the course today, and I will meet with them at 5:15 on Wednesday in 239 Altgeld Hall.  I will be sending an e-mail to the students at the end of the day.
