Astrophysics with Crider

I'm writing to remind you all that our exam is tomorrow in MCMI 321. There will be 20 short, closed-book questions (estimated time: 20 minutes) and one, 4-part open-book question (estimated time: 40 minutes). I've decided to allow you to use calculators during the closed-book portion, so please bring one or plan to use the built-in calculator that comes with Microsoft Vista.

I'm very excited and pleased with the closed-book question, by the way. It ties together several homework problems, includes some data interpretation, and also introduces a new topic from an upcoming chapter. After an interesting conversation with Dr. Altmann, I have decided that I will even be willing to tell you which homework problems that you did go with each part of the exam problem...for a price. If you get stuck and need such hints, it will cost you a 1-point (out of 10) deduction on that part.

If you have any questions, please e-mail or IM me at "acrider@elon.edu".

See you all tomorrow!
Dr. C
