Welcome - Jan 5

Happy New Year!!!!!!!

I hope you had a fun, but safe, New Year break. Next week we will be starting the Spring Semester - You are currently registered at this time for MAT 367. In case you want to get started, or are wondering what we may be doing, checkout http://people.uncw.edu/hermanr/mat367, the course web site. You will find a syllabus at that site and an idea as to what I will expect.

The first assignment will be to email me with whatever you wish to tell me and how we can establish communication as soon as possible. I am interested in your success in the course and to make sure you know what I expect. Class is at 8:00 am three days a week and I expect you to be there! Also, I expect that you will be thinking about my class more than just three mornings a week! I will have standing office hours, but I will also answer emails and/or set up additional appointments if possible (See http://people.uncw.edu/hermanr/contact.htm), and do what I can to help you through the course. Anything else you might want to know about me you can find out through my web site - http://people.uncw.edu/hermanr/.

It is important to get into reading ahead, starting homework right away, and making a habit of visiting my office in Osprey Hall. Do not start working on homework the night before it is due or you will not get it done on time. Start early in case you have questions (you will!). I expect you to come by often (OS 2007J) throughout the semester for helpful hints. I hope we have an enjoyable semester. Of course, you need to get the text as soon as possible because class begins Monday at 8:00 AM.

Feel free to bring more people to class. We have plenty of seats and you might want to encourage people to take this class.
