Subject: Overcrowding in Lecture C (1:00-1:50 pm)
Date: January 25, 2015 6:40:53 PM PST

Dear Math 20B Students,

Due to overcrowding in Lecture C (with Professor Bowers in Warren Lecture Hall 2001 meeting 1:00 - 1:50 P.M.), 
we have been forced to use assigned seating in Lecture C (only) starting on Wednesday, Jan 28. If you are 
enrolled in Lecture C, your seat assignment is posted in Ted (in the Grade Center). If you are not enrolled in Lecture C, 
then you must attend the lecture in which you are officially enrolled.

In case of confusion regarding seat assignments in Lecture C, a photo ID will be required.

This is only for Lecture C (1:00 - 1:50 P.M.) and does not relate to the exam assignments in any way.

Sincerely,
Adam Bowers,
Math 20B Coordinator

Subject: Math 20B Winter 2015

Dear Students,

You are receiving this email message because you are enrolled in one of the four Math 20B lectures at 
UCSD this Winter Quarter.

*Math 20B Course Website*
Everything you ever wanted to know about the course (including the course calendar and syllabus) can be 
found on the course website: http://www.math.ucsd.edu/~abowers/20b/index.html

*Online Homework*
This quarter we will be using an online homework system called WebWork. This service is provided free 
to students.  Instructions for logging into the online homework system can be found on the class WebWork 
page here: http://www.math.ucsd.edu/~abowers/20b/webwork.html

*Syllabus Quiz*
The first assignment in WebWork is the Syllabus Quiz (due Jan 15 at 5:00 am).  The questions are multiple 
choice, so you only get one attempt at each question.  You may have the syllabus open while you take the 
Syllabus Quiz.

This quarter we will be using Piazza for all of our class discussion. You can post questions to classmates, 
TAs, and instructors. You have already been registered for our Math 20B Piazza course. You can find our
