Final exam.
The uniform final for all Math 131 classes will be held Monday Dec. 14 from 1:30 to 3:30 P.M. The location for the final will be announced later; it will depend on your section, and it will probably NOT be the usual room for the lecture or section meeting.

TA Sections.
You meet with your Math TA on Monday and with your biology TA on Wednesday. Unless announced otherwise, you can generally expect a quiz in your math section and a worksheet in your biology section -- graded events. The Monday quizzes AND the midterms will very strongly reflect your assigned homework.

Notes.
1. The lecture on a given day covers material indicated in the box for that day. The unexplained numbers refer to sections of the text ("Calculus for the Life Sciences" by Greenwell et al).
2. The schedule above may change a bit due to snow days or other factors.

Some deadlines.
Monday Sept. 14: last day of schedule adjustment for Fall 2015
(last day to drop a class with no W on the record)
Monday Nov. 9: last day to drop a course with a W ("withdrawal")
Other deadlines
