  1. Day 6 of the outage.

  2. ECSE-2500 Engineering Probability grade modification because the optional final was canceled: Replace the final grade with the max of the other 2 exams, then use the top 2 of the 3 exams. Then add 5% to everyone's total grade. This makes the course GPA 3.36, which ain't so bad.

  3. I can't access SIS yet to upload the grades to the registrar. However I will try to upload them to LMS FYI.

  1. Day 4, hackers have taken RPI off the internet, and I don't know when it will be back up. Higher levels at RPI are silent about what happened, and when RPI will be back online.

  2. The final exam has been canceled. There will not be a makeup. This is RPI policy. It is also the only reasonable thing to do.

  3. RPI levels above my pay grade will decide a grading policy. We would like some consistency between courses.

  4. This site, https://wrandolphfranklin.org/probability , will have updates. Although it's now moot, it also has a copy of my course blog, with links updated.

  5. If you send me your non-RPI email, I'll email announcements. You may email me at PEE ARR OH BEE AT DOUBLEYOU ARR EFF ARR EH EN KAY ELL EYE EN DOT OH ARR GEE, and also ask questions.

  6. ECSE's new temporary website has ECSE updates and a form to enter your contact info.
