We will have to adapt class to the situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As I write this (August 31, 2021), things are constantly changing.

But, as of today… we are still scheduled to have in-person lectures, and we are still planning to conduct class in the usual format.

If you are just getting started, the most important things to know:

• If you haven’t read What Is This Class and Why? page you should.
• Understand the Communications policy to know what there is beyond this web page.
• There are required Class Meetings (Lectures).
• There are some non-standard Requirements, but you don’t need to buy Books.
• Look over the class Policies, in particular understand the The Weekly Rhythm of the class.
• Understand the different Parts of Class.
• Take some time to set up Canvas
• Look at the Schedule to get a sense of what will happen this semester (at least what is scheduled so far).
• And then look at The Week in Vis: Week 01: Getting Started to see what’s happening the first week!
