LECTURE AND READING LIST
The Reading List along with the list of dates is always my best
guess as to where we will be at a particular point in the semester. Please know
that we will likely deviate from the dates with regard to the reading
assignments, but that the test dates will not be changed and the general
coverage for each test will be as given. Frequent announcements will be made in
class to let you know where we are in the reading.
