Course
meets Tuesdays and Thursdays at 12:00 noon to 1:45 pm in
Social Sciences Building 2, Room 071
 
EXAM REVIEW:  
This will be IN CLASS at 12:00-1:45 on Tuesday February 4th




Discussion Sections will meet according to the linked schedule.  
However, there are currently three scheduled, but since only 34 students have enrolled,
it is likely we will have no more than two.
