Problem Solving Sessions

Every Monday (November 16, 23, 30, and December 7), I will hold a problem solving session from 12:00 Noon - 12:50 PM in CLAS Room 247.

Attendance is purely voluntary.

See you there if you plan to attend.

Posted on November 4, 2009

Per class schedule, this course has an in-class exam on Wednesday, November 11 starting at 5:00 PM in Room CLAS 340 (Statistics Teaching Lab). The exam is both closed-book and closed-notes. Plan to arrive ahead of time.

It will be at least a two-hour exam. The time limit may or may not be extended at the professor's discretion. Once the exam begins, if for any reason whatsoever a student cannot stay beyond the first two hours (assuming that the duration is extended), s/he cannot make it up some other time.

So, please come prepared. There is no make-up anyway.

Wish You All the Very Best
