To My Lovely Students!

Hey guys,

I've got a blog going now. Hooray. But it's only going to be as valuable as you make it. Here are some things you can use it for:

1. If you were sick, you can see the day's agenda, and find the classwork and homework that you need to do.
2. You can use the links on the right side to find the meaning of terms/rules/theorems that may help you.
3. You can post to this blog! And I can respond to questions right here!
4. We can carry on a big conversation that all 135 of you are in on as long as you can find a web connection.

There's probably more, but I don't know it right now. See you Monday!

your fair leader, dave
