Register for the spring term before the end of the fall semester! You will have a better selection of classes and sections if you do. Also, you should be aware that if you wait too long, there is the possibility that a section you want could be cancelled due to insufficient enrollment.
As of dinner time last night, Internet access was restored to the Lincroft campus. The IT staff continues to monitor the situation any signs of instability or trouble and Brookdale email seems to be working just fine now.
Today is the end of the final WebAdvisor monitoring interval. Students with attendance issues, poor homework performance, and/or missing assignments should take this warning very seriously.
Priority registration is underway! In order to give yourself the best chance of getting all of the classes you need as well as the days and class meeting times you prefer, you should register early.
Monday is the end of the fourth WebAdvisor monitoring interval. Students with attendance issues, poor homework performance, and/or missing assignments should take this warning seriously.
I was reviewing today's batch of source code submissions and I noticed that an awful lot of people were not making good use of their whitespace. Please observe the following rules in your code:
Today is the end of the third WebAdvisor monitoring interval. Students with attendance issues, poor homework performance, and/or missing assignments should take this warning seriously.

It is unacceptable to use "magic numbers" in your source code. When dealing with trivial programs, using a naked number doesn't look like such a big deal (the code is short and, if well commented, the intent of the programmer is clear) but it is still a very bad habit to develop. The problem is both clearer to see and greatly magnified once the size of the code in question is larger.
In reviewing source code this weekend, I have noticed that some students are still emailing me source code files that are suspiciously similar to the work sent by another student. I realize that the first few assignments should be rather similar in appearance due to the very trivial nature of the requirements given but the students involved have submitted similar initial code and similar revisions - including their errors.
I continue to find emails arriving in my Brookdale inbox which do not originate from the Brookdale mail server. As I announced in the first class, all email which does not come from a Brookdale email address is deleted unread. If you need to contact me, you must use your Brookdale email only.
Due to a catastrophic system failure, I need to reinstall all of my software. I will review and grade all assignments submitted but please be patient as I reconfigure my home system.
Notice to all students:
Swimming River Road is closed indefinitely due to damage sustained during Hurricane Irene. Please plan your route to school accordingly and allow extra travel time as other approached to the Lincroft campus will likely be more congested than normal.
Here are some basic DOS commands which should be helpful to you when you are working (compiling and running code) at the command line.
