Electronically submit your assignments using catalyst:
    Electronic assignment submit page
Files can be repeatedly submitted; a menu guides you through deleting old files. So, submit early and submit often.

Post a question (or an answer):
    Electronic Q and A page
A few rules:

  • Post questions (or answers), but do not post your code (okay to include a snippet of code).
  • Please use an appropriate, clear subject.
  • Do not post unnecessary messages such as "thank you" .
  • Don't carry on a personal conversation.
    Announcements:   Do not allow non-CSS students in the labs (most importantly so they will not consume our resources). If resource consumption is abused, your lab fee will be increased.
