New Students

For students enrolled in my classes for the Fall 2010 Semester. Scroll down and on the right side you'll see the powerpoints for my two classes. One set of lectures is for Phil 220 and the others below it are for Psyc 299. The files are in powerpoint format, so you must have powerpoint to read the files. If your computer does not have powerpoint most of the computers on campus do and you can download the lectures there. Let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to a great semester.
