Gradebook on BB

Folks, I need to apologize. I was grading HW 3 & 4 this weekend, and noticed that I hadn't made the Blackboard grade book visible to you. You should be able to see your individual entries now. Sorry.

Final Project Presentation Day

As we discussed today, the tentative time for the final project presentations is Thursday, December 4, 2:00-5:30 (I added 1/2 hour to give us a little breathing room). Please make sure this time slot works for you, and let me know if there's an issue.
