Extra Office Hours tonight
I will be holding extra office hours tonight from 5-7pm for any last minute questions. I'll also bring leftover homeworks for those of you who still need to pick them up. I will sit in the Steam cafe area, and possibly move to the BT teaching lab (3-403) if it gets crowded.
