Fall 2002 Course Schedule - 16-Week Semester

The purpose of this schedule is to help you pace yourself during the semester. My Late Policy for programming assignments (all sections) and tests (open campus sections only) is included in the course syllabus. Absolute deadlines are also listed in this schedule. Note: weeks with an asterisk ("*") in the Week of column are subject to change (due dates and assignments may be adjusted). The asterisk will be removed when the week's schedule is finalized.
