All students in the class as of today, the day after the end of the drop/add period, are registered for Wiley Plus. For those students adding the course late, we have now allowed self-registration in Wiley Plus. Please do not wait until the last minute to start your first homework assignment because there are no extensions on the homework.


28-Aug-2009

Please check your other courses to make sure there are no exam conflicts. We already know that there is an exam conflict for Exams 1 and 2 with at least some sections of CHM 2046.

The UF policy for exam conflicts is listed here. Note that assembly exams such as those in PHY 2049 take priority over time-of-class exams. When two assembly exams are in conflict, the higher course number (2049 > 2046) takes priority.

We need to know of any exam conflicts at least one week prior to the exam so that we can provide accomodation if we are required by the above rules.


24-Aug-2009

General announcements to the class will be found here. Check this area frequently. Discussion sections will meet during the first week.

The Fall semester always has the potential for interuptions in classes due to a tropical storm or hurricane. This Fall in addition we have the threat of an H1N1 virus (swine flu) outbreak. Please check this web site regularly for important announcements.
