U-Storage problem reporting form. If the pages on this course site refuse to appear, or look funny, you should let the U-Storage/U-Mail people know that you are affected by a recurring problem producing internal server errors when serving web pages hosted on U-Storage sites. I've reported this problem already, but it seems not to have been resolved. Maybe if more people report that it affects them, they'll see it as a higher priority.
Lecture slide shows. Though these are not a substitute for coming to lecture, they may be helpful in preparing for the final. They are available as a series of slide shows on Slideshare.
