How can you contact me?
You can email me at jkraisler@amherst.edu or drop by my office SCCE E206 during office hours.
Office hours: Please stop by my office hours whenever you have questions. You do not need a separate appointment to show up for office hours. The purpose of office hours is for us to work through problems together. Don’t expect to simply be given the answers. These are really meant to be (non-intimidating) mathematical conversations. The office hour schedule (starting on September 11th) is as follows:
Monday 4 - 5 pm || Tuesday 1 - 3 pm || Wednesday 11am - 12 pm || Friday 1 - 2 pm
