2008 syllabus website

The whole compilation of materials for the course can be printed out and organized with dividers in a binder. Wait till after 1 Sept. for a final version and to see if the class will arrange to get copies printed for everyone.

Students who prefer to access course materials online should create a bookmark to the table of contents for the syllabus and key online materials, but should still have ready access to a hardcopy of certain items, as described in the syllabus.
