Preliminaries

Welcome to CSC 151!
I’m still Sam (or SamR)
Your class mentors are still Anh Thu, Ritika, and Zander.
Mike Conner, our System Administrator, should be here near the beginning of class to distribute accounts for MathLAN.
You should have received three handouts at the start of class.
- A card that tells you where to sit.
- Lab instructions for the GNU/Linux lab
- Lab instructions for the first Scheme lab you can read the lab instructions online or print your own.
We will be following the instructions for finding a computer each class.
I will skip attendance today.
Another class follows immediately after ours. Please make sure that you appropriately clean up after yourself, leaving your work area as good or better than you found it.
- Note pads neatly near the side
- Chairs pushed in
- Scraps thrown away
- Machine card back in the box
Reminder: We have a mailing list of stuff of interest to people interested in CS (talks, opportunities, etc.). Drop me a message if you’d like to be added.
Before your primary Grinnell account gets locked … sign in to passwordreset.grinnell.edu and fill out the security questions.
There is (almost) always free hot water in the CS commons (sometimes coffee, sometimes tea, …)
