This course is the seminar for new graduate students in computer science.
The primary goal of the seminar is to introduce the new students to
the department and the university,
particularly to the research projects that the current students and
faculty are engaged in.
Grading for the course is pass/fail and is based simply upon
attendance.
Students in the course are expected to attend all sessions
of the class unless they arrange an excused absence with me in advance.
The class will meet on Thursdays, 12:40-2pm in Kingsbury N113.
As a courtesy to the speakers, students should keep their
laptops and other electronic devices closed during the seminar.
