hello cs161ers: based on the number of responses that i received, it seems like a post-161 party/get-together is a popular idea. however, tomorrow seems bad for a couple of reasons: 1) your valiant teaching staff has to have grading finished by midnight tomorrow night (and one has an exam monday to boot). now, while i know that most of you would probably rather have us out rather than poring over your asst5's, this would probably drive TF attendance down. and we plan on being the life of the party, oh yeah. 2) a few people can't make it. 3) tomorrow grades won't yet be finished, and we'd rather not give you one more shot at trying to bore your way into our hard little hearts... well, i said there were a couple and there they are. that said, i feel obliged to try and push this back into next week. next weekend would be ideal i think, but i'm worried that many of you may not be around then since exams will be over. so how about sometime during next week? invariably this will conflict with some final or another, but i'm going to arbitrarily pick wednesday night, 6PM, rock bottom in harvard square. if you want to come and can't, please complain. if we have enough complaints, we'll move it again. i'm hoping that many of you will still be around and be willing to come join us. also, at that point we will have finished final grades, and would love to hear any comments/criticism you have of the course that you can offer freely without fear of retribution. best wishes for this coming week. again, please email if you aren't going to be able to make it. -gwa- geoffrey werner-allen : 617-694-7261 : www.eecs.harvard.edu/~werner
