Fall quarter Weekly Workflow

  • You can find a (tentative) day-by-day description of out-of-class work by clicking here. While there may be minor changes, this gives you a good sense of what is due when and how you might distribute your work across the week. The version that will show up in the Program Syllabus will be definitive, and we will update this page to reflect that final version.
  • While looking at the workflow page, you should also look at the Class Meeting Schedule.
