*       To get you started here are the most important things you need to know:
 

*       The information about the astronomy textbook is in the Welcome section of the site, the contact information of your instructor, including office hours, is in the Contact Information section.
 

*       The official rules and regulations of the course are in the Requirements and Grading section; please read them carefully and if you have any questions do not hesitate to ask them. Not knowing the official rules and regulations of the course does not exempt you from the consequences of violating them!
 

*       Lecture notes are posted, to get them visit the Lecture and Exam Schedules section of the site. It would be to your advantage to print these notes before class and bring it to the lecture so that you can focus on understanding the material rather than taking notes.
