Homework and a Change to Upcoming Assignments
Don't forget that your report is due on Monday or Tuesday, depending upon when your class meets. You don't need to be concerned about your presentation until Friday, November 12. We will set up a presentation schedule in class on Monday and Tuesday. I have moved the Study of Populations lab to after Thanksgiving. So we will do that lab on Monday and Tuesday- November 29, 30 - with the lab write-up due December 6,7.
