General advice on how to study for the course
-
You should devote 8-10 hours per week studying for the class
(more if you need to).
-
Reading course material in advance will help you to understand
the material. It also gives you an opportunity to ask questions about
the parts you did not understand.
-
Use my office hours if needed.

wrong. Academic misconduct could result in disciplinary action that
may include, but is not limited to, suspension or dismissal.
