Fall 2000 Calculus/Physics
Note that a) this is an approximate schedule that may change and 2) this is for section 2; the section 1 group
does on Monday what section 2 does on Tuesday and vice versa. Similarly Wednesday and Thursday schedules are
interchanged for section 1. The numbers give chapter or section numbers to be read before class.
