4.0.1 Scheduling Notes

The course schedule may change as it depends on the progress of the class and the challenges we are confronted by this semester. The web version of this document will be updated to reflect any alterations, but the .pdf version will remain unaltered.

This semester, we will not have class on October 28 and November 25 because they fall on University breaks. Additionally, no class activities are scheduled for October 26 or November 23. These are “flex days,” which I have left without a scheduled plan to accommodate changes due to COVID-19. If we are approaching these dates without having had to use them, these will become days off from this course.
