Dear Students in Computer Science Courses, The members of the faculty and staff of the Department of Computer Science are working hard to adjust our courses to the new realities of on-line only education. This includes (a) alternate ways of delivering lectures and having discussions within lectures, (b) reorganizing labs, recitations and office hours while trying to preserve to the extent possible the individualized attention that is so important to your learning, and (c) modifying the course syllabi as needed. We ask you to be patient as we try out new ideas and solutions, discarding things that don't work, and expanding on what does. This will happen over an extended period. Suggestions are welcome. Please work with your professor and your TAs to solve issues that arise in your course, understanding that it may take some time to do so. If issues remain unresolved after a significant amount of time, please feel free to contact me (stewart@rpi.edu) to discuss them and I will do my best to help out. Chuck Stewart Professor and Department Head
