Subject: Math 20B Winter 2016
Date: January 10, 2016 12:12:57 PM PST
Dear Math 20B Students,
The due dates for Homework 01 and the Syllabus Quiz are at the end of this week (Week 2). More
information about the homework can be found on the class website:
http://www.math.ucsd.edu/~abowers/20b/homework.html
Please note that all students (from all Math 20B lectures) are in the same WebAssign course.
If you were enrolled in (or were on a waitlist for) any Math 20B lecture as of January 3rd, then
you would have received an email from WebAssign at your UCSD email address explaining how to
access your WebAssign account. (Make sure to check your spam folder. If you cannot find the email,
then try resetting your password.) If you enrolled (or were added to a waitlist) after January 3rd,
then you need to email the course coordinator (*me*) from your UCSD email account so that you can
be added to WebAssign manually.
Due dates will not be changed for students who access the homework late.
Please see the class website for more information: http://www.math.ucsd.edu/~abowers/20b/index.html
