4/30: You took the first half of the
final. The second half of the final is supposedly 8-10 AM on
Monday. I will allow you to start at 7:00 AM. However, I
will not be available until 9:00. You can ask me questions
from 9:00 to 11:00. I will set the due time as noon.
However, I recommend starting earlier rather than later in case you
want to ask me questions. If you need another time because of
work or another problem, contact me and let me know.
4/28: I handed back the exam and a
printout of your grades. We went over both. The review
session for the first half of the final is tomorrow at 1:00.
The first half of the final is Thursday during the normal class
period. It will cover everything from the semester except for
what will be covered during the second half of the final.
Therefore, it will be mostly material from the first exam.
Some guaranteed topics will be opportunity costs, supply/demand for
a good, and Social Security.

video.

reviewing for the second half of the final. You handed in

documents. If you do not know how to do that, you can go to pdfcandy.com.
I will be available via Zoom during that time if you have
questions. However, Zoom will end a session if there is 40
minutes of no activity, so there may be a short time where it logs
me out and I have to restart the meeting.
3/23: I ran the review session at
1:00. The exam will be at the normal class time on
Thursday. It will be given via Canvas. My new office
hours are posted on my webpage. They are Monday through Friday

available to all of my classes.) and every evening from 9:00 to
10:00 via e-mail. This latter is where I will be online and
