You will be placed in groups of four to examine
the case. Dr. Mandyck will join us tomorrow to
give a tutorial on using scientific databases to
help with our investigation of the case.
Answers to Part I will be due at the midpoint of
class on Tuesday, so each member in your
group is expected to come to class tomorrow
with some preliminary answers for Part I.
About twenty minutes of class will be given to
