Mailing list: the mailing list for the class is cs357@colby.edu As soon as possible, you should send email to majordomo@colby.edu with the following text in the body of the message: subscribe cs357.
You should receive confirmation that you have been added to the list. I will use the mailing list to distribute some class information, especially last-minute corrections and things like that. I also encourage students to use the mailing list to contact each other, ask questions, make suggestions, or anything else, as long as it pertains to the course. Please do not send messages to the mailing list that are not course-related.
Class-related email: I don't use a Macintosh, so please don't send me attached documents in formats other than plain text.
