I. Basic Information

  1. Your name  
                  as you wish to be called 
    (and/or) as you wish NOT to be called 
     
  2. Your preferred e-mail address 
     
  3. OK if your picture is made available to others in the class so they can find you? (it won't be visible to the world) 
     
  4. Did you respond to my message to you (probably ~Aug 14) requesting your consent to make your e-mail available to people associated with this class (but not to others)? 
     
  5. How often do you check e-mail? 
     
  6. Month/year you expect to graduate 
    Would you consider this date a near sure bet? A plausible guess? A target, but unlikely?

  8. Almost every class you will need to bring a laptop with wireless access.
         Any problem with this?

         In not too long, your browser will need to be Firefox (unavoidable, sorry). OK? 

     
  9. Do you want access to the Harris Hall Computer Lab (Harris 3112)? If so, answer yes by filling out this form (if you've already filled it out, no need to do so twice).
