From markaf@MIT.EDU Thu Feb 6 13:43:49 2003 Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2003 15:22:35 -0500 (EST) From: Mark Alan Finlayson To: 6.050-students@MIT.EDU Subject: You have been subscribed to the 6.050-students mailing list Hello, If you have recieved this message, you are now subscribed to the 6.050-students@mit.edu mailing list. Most likely this has happened because yesterday you filled out a signup form at the first meeting of 2.110/6.050 Information and Entropy, taught by Professors Penfield and Lloyd. Hopefully you are registered for the course and are eager to begin! However, if you have been added to this list by mistake, please email me, Mark Finlayson, the 2.110/6.050 TA and administrator of the list. In addition, please contact me if you end up dropping the course and want to be removed from the list. This list will serve to communicate timely and important information regarding the class. It is an open list, anyone can send email to it, and you are welcome to email the list if it is appropriate. Please be aware, though, that everyone involved in the course is on the list, including the professors, myself, and the course secretary. Thus, you should be careful and respectful of sending email to the list. If you have a question or comment relevant to the class as a whole, feel free to email the list. However, if only a few people would be interested in your message, please take pains to email only them individually. And, also, please be careful to avoid the common "Reply All" error, when you mean only to respond to someone individually. If you wish to contact just the staff of the course, the appropriate list to use is 6.050-staff@mit.edu. Electronic submissions of homeworks and other material should use the 6.050-submit@mit.edu list. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me, call, or stop by and chat. Welcome aboard and I'm looking forward to a great semester!
