Learning Assistant Laura Stordy will run (almost) weekly workshops during the semester. They will review and go into greater depth on some of the important topics from the course. These workshops are optional, but I strongly encourage you to attend. There will be two identical workshops most weeks, Tuesday at 5:00 pm and Thursday at 7:00pm, in BSC 112W. For each week that you attend, you will get one point on the next exam (bringing your grade up to a maximum of 100). To get the extra credit, you must attend and participate the entire time. Please bring your textbook to the workshop.
