Other dates

 

In addition to presentations and critiques, we will be working on various exercises in class. The due dates for these exercises will be discussed as they happen.

Oct 15 and Dec 20 are reserved for individual reviews. Each student will sign up for 10 or 15 minute sessions. You must bring ALL the work you have done up to that point for your review. Do NOT throw away any material from this class. Your grade will depend on it. Your midterm and final grades will be given to you at this session.

There will be no classes on Sept 2 (Labor Day) and Nov 21-22 (Thanksgiving).
