Dear Third and Fourth Year,
I apologize for the delay, but I have had some quite serious health issues over the last three weeks.
I am slowly getting better, but I wanted us to get started with our work.
Due to the situation, our work this semester will be done online, over Zoom. I will send the invitations in the next day or two.
We will be having classes this week, Third Year on Thursday, Fourth Year on Friday. I will prepare the classes so that you do not have any assignments for this week.
What is important for now: please check the lists in the links here. Make sure that your name is on them, and notify your classmates if you see they are missing.
Third Year: I have arbitrarily assigned you into groups. I know that some of you will need to change that because of other classes. Please do not worry. We can work it all out. I recommend that you find a coordinator among yourselves to ease communication with me so that I do not have 32 individual requests for changes, problems and so on. I will be posting the class description, the materials we will be working on, and an explanation of how we do it. I hope to do this in the next couple of days.
Fourth Year: You know the routine already, and we will continue working together successfully as we did last year.
Keep your eyes on this spot for upcoming information.
Once again, I apologize, but there was little that could be done differently.
And remember: Don't Panic.
Randall
