PLEASE NOTE: If you miss your time slot, there is no guarantee that you will get a chance to make it up another day; if you do there will be grade penalty. Also, if people skip their time slot, everyone else moves up in the order. This means that it’s possible—and likely—that some on the “Day 2” list may have to go on day 1. EVERY ONE SHOULD BE READY TO GIVE A TALK ON APRIL 24TH.
