*************************************************
My goal for each of my students is that each of of you feel comfortable 
coming to math class.  I hope that you feel comfortable asking questions 
about things you don't understand.  Chances are, if you have a question, 
someone else in the room is wondering the same thing.

***************************************************
Please contact me if you have questions or concerns...
