Okay, I get it. You’re wondering how to use this website. There are two main pages that you’ll want to check on the website.

Home

The home page contains a listing of everything that’s ever been posted in reverse chronological order. This is where you will find the most up-to-date class-related information.

The left and right columns on the page provide shortcuts to links that are categorized in a variety of ways. The links can be other posts, pdf files, or other websites. Each has information relevant to topics covered during the course of our class.

Syllabus

This is a separate page containing an outline with a prospectus of what should occur each week in the semester.

Tonight’s Class

Be sure to bring your camera and the cable that allows you to connect to and download to the computer. We will be doing some exercises to help jump start your self-portrait project.
