For those of you who were not in class today (or for those of you who do not have the handout in front of you and would like a quick reminder), here is some information about the MIDTERM EXAM!!!

I will be emailing you all with the handout information for Jaws and Ghostbusters later this afternoon. In the meantime, if you have questions, write me an email or ask me in Lab class tomorrow. Happy studying!
