What follows are the homework assignments for the indicated week.

Unless stated below to the contrary, the assignment for any given week is due in your first scheduled section meeting of the subsequent week. In fact, there are two exceptions to this rule: In the case of the week prior to the spring break, the assignment is due in the first scheduled section meeting for the week after spring break. In the case of the final week of classes, May 3-7, the homework is due in your last scheduled section meeting of that same week.

The answers will be posted on the website on the Wednesday of the week that the problems are due except in the case of the final week of classes.

*The starred problems are suggested but not to be turned in.
