All registration issues such as getting into the class or changing sections are handled by the the registrar or the math dept. The teaching assistants and I are not allowed to sign anything in this regard. Go to the Registrar for the first 2 weeks. After that, go to Sabrina Raymond in the math dept and she can help you. You will get into the course.
If you get the flu, you are not supposed to come to class. Our classroom is very small and you will be in close proximity to many and they too will get the flu. In particular, stay away from me so I can keep teaching. Roughly a third of you will at least catch a cold if not the flu during the first month of classes. This is one of the joys of college life, sort of like starting Kindergarten. I'll talk to you all endlessly, but, please, no physical contact, for example, shaking hands.
Here is a page of useful supportive materials for the course, things like how to study math etc. It has grown and become cluttered so I wanted to get it off the main page.
Anyone interested in and/or in need of tutoring in Calculus II should take a look at the tutoring webpage for Academic Advising. You have to make a reservation, but their schedules, etc, are all there now. This is a new JHU service and you should take advantage of it.
