Clarification on the extra credit deadlines: the last night for the Telescope Observing exercise with full credit is Monday, April 28. The other two extra credit assignments, for only half credit, are due by Friday, April 25. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 8 APRIL 2008 Because of the bad weather, the deadline for submission of the Telescope Observing Extra Credit assignment for full credit is EXTENDED to the end of the semester. We won't be able to offer credit, however, if the weather remains poor. This extension does not apply to the two other Extra Credit assignments. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 20 FEBRUARY 2008: (Wednesday) CLASS IS CANCELLED TODAY! I'm sick and won't be able to be there. The Midterm Exam will still be held next Monday, and the review will be held next Sunday. The only thing that will change is that the coverage of material on the exam will run only ***through Study Guide 8***. Go to the course "Exam Prep" page for more information on the exam. If you want a hardcopy of the "Hints" page, you can pick that up from TA Genevieve in class at 2 PM today. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 15 JANUARY 2008: Students in this section do NOT have to buy the "student response system" electronic clickers. Apparently, labeling of the text options in the UVa Bookstore was incorrect until today. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 12 JANUARY 2008: The first class meeting will be Wednesday, January 16 at 2 PM in Clark Hall 107. See you then. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
