HANDOUTS
This is where you can access most handouts (Word files) distributed by faculty. This will be a convenient way for you to get handouts if you are ill or must miss class for some reason.
Note: In those instances where we do not have permission to publish a handout to the web, we have indicated below which faculty member has distributed it. This is for your convenience in locating a hard copy of the handout. When we are unable to upload a handout, each faculty member will place his/her handout outside his/her office door.
