• 15 Aug 06: Lectures might be cancelled on the following days: Friday 25 August (the last day before the mid-semester break), Monday 11 September (the first day after the mid-semster break), Monday 25 September (this would require V Kunta's permission), and Wednesday 27 September. We will discuss this proposal in class on Wednesday 16 August, and we will finalise the cancellation schedule on Friday 18 August. These cancellations, and a reduction of the size of the required-reading list relative to last year, is intended to reduce your workload by a factor of 1/8 to compensate for this year's increase (from 7 to 8) of the number of courses taken by a fulltime student this year.

The class of Friday 29 September will be handled by Dr Stephen Drape, who will assess one oral presentation and administer the sample final exam.
