Welcome to Brian Ganter’s course website. This page contains important information you will need for your successful completion of the course. Please read and review the links below during the first week of the term. This is not an ITunes “Terms of Agreement” that you can skip reading (as we all do 😉 ) and simply click a button to “agree” with. There is important information here that you need to review and understand as a student. After reading it, speak with your instructor if you have any questions or concerns.

- First, read the three links below under “FIRST READINGS.”
