This page will contain links to lecture notes and other class-related information, usually posted as a PDF file. Please be advised that notes from only a FEW classes will be posted here (in other words, do not rely on this page to find notes for classes you missed!) • In general, I will only post notes for classes in which the bulk of the lecture was based on non-required reading material. Check back often for updates.
