Final Exam Grades

If you would like to examine your final exam, you may look at it in Prof. Patt's secretary's office in ENS 541 anytime she is there. That means nominally 8am to 5pm, minus her lunch hour and also when she is running errands. The model we will use is as follows: Show her your student ID card; she will hand you your exam. You will not take the exam from her office, or mark on it with any pen, pencil, etc. When you are through looking at it, return the exam to her. If you feel there has been an error in grading, do not bother her. Send Prof. Patt email explaining the problem, and he will regrade it when he gets back.

A Message from Professor Patt about this week's lectures and the optional help session

As predicted a couple of weeks ago, there will be no formal lectures the week of March 19. Both Onur and Kameswar will hold discussion sessions for those who would like the extra help in the normal discussion rooms, 216 Burdine, and 127 ENS. Lectures will resume the week of March 26. Please see the updated class schedule, in particular the lecture scheduled for April 10.

Also, as promised, I am going to hold a very optional help session next Saturday, March 23, in the late afternoon. Time and Room number will be posted as soon as it is confirmed by the scheduling office. The purpose of this session will be to review in whatever detail students find necessary the material we have already covered. The objective is to help those students who are currently not doing well, but could do well with some more explanation. The rules are that everyone is welcome at the Saturday session, but if you are an A student, you are not allowed to ask any questions. My intent will be to answer questions and work examples. If you would like to attend, but Saturday is just impossible for you, let Onur know, and I will try to schedule another one on Sunday also.

If you do not have an ECE computer account, you should get one. Normally, as a part of being registered for this course, you should have an account that is not yet active. You can activate your ECE account by talking to the proctors in ENS 507. We will test your lab assignments on UNIX systems and compile them with gcc. You should make sure that your program compiles with gcc before you submit it. You need your ECE account to do this and also to turn in your assignments.
