I stongly recommend that you print a copy of this calendar and post it in a conspicuous place (like on your refrigerator) so that you do not forget an important date and consequently lose points according to the class rules.


To faciliate your understanding of the calendar, the different activities are highlighted with these colors:

black = assigned readings
orange = homework quizzes
red = exams
green = optional activities (NOT required!)
blue = clickable links
purple = visited links
