MTH 122  Discrete Mathematics Semester 112  Calendar

Use the class discussion notes posted to the web page to guide your reading in terms of emphasized concepts.   We are not covering all of the material in each section  -- pay attention to the concepts and examples that you are asked to study.   For Homework, write out complete answers NEATLY and CLEARLY. You must show your work! Partial credit is given when work is shown even if answer is incorrect. Start homework early and see me for help with problems you don't know how to work! My office is Core 257-- See my schedule for office hours or call or send email for an appointment. I am always willing to help.
