Below is the current calendar for the CSE142 class. Please keep in mind that the instructors are constantly updating this. It should accurately describe the past, but it won't always accurately predict the future. There are links to slides used in class, which are revised versions of slides made by our textbook's coauthor, Marty Stepp.
