Ok, that’s that then. I’ve now submitted the grades and posted everything that I have to the Blackboard site. Your grades should be visible now through the Student Link. I will be posting the key to the final on the syllabus page shortly, if you want to have a look, and you can pick up …
If you happen to be one of the first couple of people to leave the final, I realized that I forgot to give you back your homework. You can pick it up later, or stop by my office sometime during the day today. Or, you know, pick it up next semester.

This includes the keys to all previous homeworks, the second part of the summary notes, and practice finals. Because there are only two classes left in the semester, you might want to start taking a look at the summary …
