<div>Unified students:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>At our weekly Unified staff meeting today, we developed a plan
for the Unified systems problems for the next several weeks that will
smooth-out the workload and provide an opportunity for midcourse
corrections to your work.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><u><b>PRIOR PLAN:</b></u></div>
<ul>
<li>Water Rocket Analysis (SP3) due Thursday 9/29 by 1pm.
<li>Water Rocket Build/Test (SP4) due Thursday 10/6 by 1pm.
<li>Then two weeks with no systems problems (next systems problem
lecture--Truss Lab--on 10/20).</ul>
<div><br></div>
<div><u><b>NEW PLAN:</b></u></div>
<ul>
<li>Water Rocket Analysis (SP3) parts (a) and (b) due by Thursday 9/29
at 1pm in the TA office.
<li>No S/L lecture on Thursday at 1pm--rather we will have a help
session in the student lounge area to go over your algorithms and
spreadsheet implementation. This way everyone can have a
working, debugged spreadsheet to go ahead and complete the latter two
parts of SP3.
<li>Water Rocket Analysis (SP3) parts (c) and (d) due by Thursday 10/6
at 1pm in the S/L lecture.
<li>The 10/6 S/L lecture will focus on the build/test part of the
project (SP4).
<li>The report on the build/test activity (SP4) will be due 2 weeks
later on 10/20 at 1pm to give you plenty of time--accounting for the
two class days that will be missed because of the Columbus Day
holiday.
<li>We will start the Truss Lab with the S/L lecture on 10/20 at
1pm.</ul>
<div><br></div>
<div>If you have any questions or concerns about the new plan, please
let me know.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thank you,</div>
