Barbara Barnwell's students:

If there is one, and if your paperwork is done, then you should take Version B (B is for Barnwell) of the quizzes, if there is one.  If there isn't a Version B, you should take the quiz that IS there.

Others, ignore this.

Stroke Update:

 

My Mother come home from the rehabilitation center.  I am going to go to Dallas to help out.

So, I am leaving on Friday, April 21 and returning to Danbury on Monday, May 1.

 

Dr. Lubell will teach Math 110 for the two days I will miss class, April 25 and April 25.  She will cover the same material I had planned to cover, Flatland and Chapter 10.  Quizzes will be due as normal, and I will post the Flatland quiz soon.

 

Be nice to her.
