...and a whole lot more.
I think we had a good class today (although everyone involved should feel free to disagree!). We spent the better part of class discussing just what it is that makes teamwork work, and then we plowed on through that syllabus. I hope I did a decent job assuaging people's fears of the course (in particular, of that terrifying "final article" and the scary "symposium presentation").
Of course, we started things off with a rousing game of Toss 'n' Sort.

Bri, thanks for the support, as usual! Lys (I don't use real names unless I've cleared it with you first): you wound up on a team with a bunch of other atmos/math double majors. Yay! I hope you all benefit from each other's expertise.
Please don't worry yourself too much: you know that I know your math skills well, and I know you're cut out for this. You'll do fine!
