Math 311: Differential Equations
Homework Assignments
First Assignment: Send me an e-mail stating that you have found and read the syllabus & class policies and tell me what you are majoring in,
why you are taking this course, what your math background is and something else about yourself.
I will use campus e-mail to communicate to the class. If you do not want to check your campus e-mail
you should set up a rule to forward messages from me to your personal e-mail.
