Calendar

Click on a week to see the schedule of activities for that period.

For any activity marked DELIVERABLE, CRITIQUE, or ENGRC (which includes PLAYTEST), attendance is mandatory and will count towards your participation grade. For other days, attendance is appreciated, but not required. Days marked as WORKDAY are open office hours giving you free time to work on your project.

The location of a class depends upon the day of the week. Classes held MWF will meet in Upson 142 while classes held W afternoon (during the discussion section) will be held in either Gates 114 (12:20) or Hollister 206 (2:30).
