PSC 192-W: Prospects for Cooperation

You should sign up here for the week that you want to do your major presentation on. In response to student request, we will not have class on the week of Thanksgiving (Nov 24), and will make this up at the end of the semester. The open sessions are:

November 10 Slot I Slot II Slot III

November 17 Slot I Slot II Slot III Slot IV

December 1 Slot I Slot II Slot III

Make-up class (week of Dec 1)

Slot I Slot II Slot III Slot III

All slots are first come, first served. I do recognize that people in the first two weeks will have less time to prepare than those in the last two classes. I am extending the paper due date to December 19 to provide people in the last two slots with more time to prepare their final draft.
