CS465: Computer Graphics I—Fall 2003

Announcements

17 December: The time and place for the final: Upson B-17 from 12:00 to 2:30.

4 November: Pet Chean Ang will be moving his office hours from 4:00 pm to 5:45 pm for Tuesday only.

4 November: There will be a help session starting at 6:30 in 110 Hollister as a review for the prelim.

20 October: There is an update to hw4a with a correction and some clarifications.

20 October: We need all your Prelim 1 exam books back to check on some grading consistency issues. We will do this in such a way that grades can only go up, not down. If you haven't already, please turn in your exam book in class on Wednesday or bring it to Andy's office (5162 Upson) any afternoon (other than class time) by Thursday.

6 October: The first prelim will be tomorrow (Tuesday, October 7), from 7:30 pm–9:00 pm in Thurston 205. There will be a help session an hour before tentatively in the same room. If the room is occupied during the hour before the exam, check the nearby classrooms for the review session.

3 October: Take a look at the schedule; we've removed one assignment and re-figured all the deadlines.

2 October: I (Prof. Marschner) will not have office hours on Friday afternoon (3 Oct). If you'd like to talk to me before my Wednesday office hours, just send email to set up an appointment.

30 September: By popular demand, Homework 3a is now due on Monday 6 October (the day before the first prelim).

11 September: Many people have had some trouble accessing the ACM Digial Library so I have made a local copy of Porter and Duff, and I'll do the same with any future DL articles. The file is only accessible to Cornell IP addresses.

8 September: I have received a lot of questions in the last couple of days that indicate that many students have been confused by the wording of problem 2 on Homework 1a. Because of this I'll spend some class time today clarifying this question, and I'll waive the late penalty for anyone who would like to revise and turn in on Wednesday. Part b is still due on Monday.

29 August: The time listed in the Course Roster, MW 2:55–4:10, is incorrect. The correct time is MWF 2:30–3:20. The roster will be corrected soon, but since many students will not yet know we are meeting on Fridays, today's class meeting will be brief.

25 August: Welcome to CS465! Be sure to check this space regularly, because we'll use it for announcements you won't want to miss.
