My weekly schedule is posted on the Web
for all to see.
I am generally in my office every day except Friday. If the door is
open, please feel free to drop in with your questions. Even if I
happen to be busy, I'll at least know that you need to talk to me and
we can set up an appointment to talk. If you are on a computer, the
command finger @mallet will generally tell you whether
I'm logged in and have multiple active windows, which is a very good
sign that I'm in the office.
As a general rule, the talk utility is not a
good way to reach me, regardless of what machine you are trying to
reach me at. I usually keep my command windows closed and my bell
disabled, so I will never see the talk request.
On Fridays I do research. You can sometimes reach me by calling 310-825-7307, though you'll rarely get an answer between noon and 3 PM, when I'm in meetings. In general, if I'm available to answer the phone, I'm also available to answer questions. If you can't get me by phone, send e-mail.
The tutors and graders assigned to this course are:

In this course, you should learn:
If you have questions that you prefer not to ask during class, or suggestions that you would rather have remain anonymous, there is now a class suggestion box on the Web. This interface will allows you to send e-mail to the instructor such that it appears to have also come from him, instead of from youself.
