Dear students,
We are in the penultimate week of the Fall 2022 semester! This is the last full week of classes.
This week you will be presenting the results of your work throughout the semester. Don’t forget to attach your files here before tomorrow or Thursday:
I will post the questions for your Final Exam (due date December 18th) soon. It is a cumulative exam and it will cover the entire semester.
You will now be a full-steam ahead on your final paper. If you have missing steps, now is the time to work on finishing them. December 18th is the last deadline to submit any missing work.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I have office hours today and on Tuesday and Thursday. Stop by if you have questions about the past steps or anything else.
