Pre-Course Email (8/20/19)

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to send a quick email with some information prior to our first class meeting tomorrow.
I will not be bringing paper copies of the syllabus to class, but you can access the syllabus and other course materials on our course website: http://community.wvu.edu/~josbour1/pages/Chem233.html
The website also has a link to the necessary course materials. There is often some confusion as to what you need so be sure to check this out as well. http://community.wvu.edu/~josbour1/pages/233materials_v2.html
You will notice that you need a Top Hat subscription for the class. I will be sending out an invitation shortly with instructions on how to register. If you don't use the email link, but instead enroll manually, please use your WVU Mix email when signing up. This will ensure your grades sync properly.
I look forward to seeing you tomorrow!
Dr. Osbourn

I will be around if you get stuck or have any questions. About mid-way through the period, I will provide an answer key so that you can check your work.
