Lectures are Mondays and Wednesdays, 11-12:30pm in Dempster (DMP) 201.
As they become available there will be links to the notes or slides.
Please note that the "print" script on the CS machines may strip out math fonts from the PDF, so you may want to use "pdf2ps" to manually convert to postscript before printing if direct from PDF doesn't work.
