CSc 114 F Schedule: Spring, 2015
[^] CSc 114 Section F
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the planned schedule for the semester. If there's a need to make changes, I will try to do so as early as possible.

Lectures meet in MCC 105, and labs meet in MCC 209. Come to 209 on days when a lecture and a lab are both scheduled. On exam days, the exam will use the first half-hour of class, and the lecture part will begin at 12:30pm. We'll generally stay in 209 rather than taking the trouble to move downstairs, but I may make exceptions if needed.

I like to give the six small exams rather than fewer larger ones. On a MWF schedule, I can just use a day for each exam, but I can't do this when meeting twice a week and still get through a reasonable amount of lecture material. Which is why I have days with an exam and lecture following.
