Hi All,

 

I'm putting together the syllabus for the class and I need some help.  I'm
looking for volunteers to help teach the class.  If you'd like to pick a
subject (see list below) and present that class, let me know.  I'll provide
the slides and be available to help field any questions asked.

 

If you'd just like to come and be a Elmer to the class, let me know that as
well.
