ALL exams should be returned to Laurie Reaves Barnett at SMU by either
phone: (214) 768-3108 Email: lreaves@lyle.smu.edu Mail: Dept. of Electrical Engineering Southern Methodist University PO Box 750338 Dallas, TX 75275-0338

Do NOT email/call to confirm receipt of assignments and do not submit assignments twice (eg: by fax AND mail)
That adds a tremendous amount of unnecessary work for both Pat and myself.see next slide.
