Classes (as well as the midterm and final) are MWF 9-9:50 in MS 6221.  Tutorials are Th 9-9:50 in MS 6221.

We will be following the textbook closely.  It is strongly recommended that you read textbook concurrently with the lectures; there is certainly no harm in reading ahead, also.  For similar reasons it is strongly recommended that you perform all the homework on time, and preferably by your own resources.
