Last Updated 12/16/99

Reading Assignments

Reading assignments are prospective; that is, they refer to material to be convered in the classes following the class in which the reading assignment is made. The reading is assigned by section.

HSN stands for Hehre, Shusterman, and Nelson, "The Molecular Modeling Workbook for Organic Chemistry", and is by exercise (example: 1.2 is Chapter 1, Exercise 2).

Problem Sets

The three problem sets are distributed at intervals throughout the semester. Generally, you should expect to have approximately one week between the distribution and when they are due. These may be worked on collaboratively, but each student is responsible for turning in a complete set of answers in his or her own handwriting. Each student is also responsible for the material examined in problem sets, so be sure you understand what you wrote down!

Be sure to follow the instructions on the problem set carefully. This is good practice for exams, which may have questions similar to those on the problem sets.

The schedule below is extremely tentative. You may use it as a general guideline as to when to expect a problem set, but don't be too surprised if the date is off by up to a week. I will announce upcoming problem sets as soon as I know the exact dates. If you see a problem set with an active link, you may download it as a .pdf file.
