Syllabus
Note: I've written the syllabus to reflect a traditional school week that begins on Monday and ends on Friday. However, you'll see that some discussions are due Saturday (in order to give you more time to respond). And you should also note that the partial Week 0 begins on a Thursday and that our Week 7 ends on a Thursday.
