This syllabus is an EVOLVING document. It starts off as a guide to the topics we will study and the dates for testing. As the semester progresses, items will be added and existing entries will be modified.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK THE SYLLABUS ON A REGULAR BASIS TO SEE WHAT ADDITIONS AND MODIFICATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.
Each week has its separate set of readings, web links, study checklists, lectures, recitation topics as well as suggested problems to practice.. In addition there is always a link to emailing me. You may email at any time and I will answer you as soon as I can.
