Info

This is a rough sketch of the quarter and things are subject to change. We can accurately predict the past, but predicting the future is hard!

Readings

Anything listed in the “Pre-Class” materials for a day should be read before attending class that day. We will start the discussion each day from the perspective that you have done that day’s reading. If something didn’t make sense from the reading, that’s a great place to start asking questions inside or out of class!
