Materials:
A TI–83 graphing calculator is required
for this course. Other graphing calculators may perform the
same functions and may be acceptable but see me about this.
If you have a TI–89, TI–92, or other technology
that can perform symbolic manipulations you will not be allowed
to use it on any form of assessment.
Prerequisite:
Math 811 or equivalent with C or better, or
appropriate score on placement test.

just as a place to sit and work in a
supportive environment. The Learning Center staff is well
trained and dedicated solely to your success, so don't waste

Science I encourage you to join MESA (7-7309) and make use of their tutoring, tutorial, and counseling services - or just hang out in the MESA center!
