Welcome!
This is the official public website for the Spring 2019 offering of CS 430 at James Madison University! There are four sections of CS 430 this year, two taught by Dr. John Bowers and two taught by Dr. Mike Lam. This website applies to all four sections. We will be posting most of the course materials here, and anything that must be private (e.g., tests, grades, copyrighted files, etc.) will be posted on each section’s Canvas page.
Please bookmark or otherwise keep this page handy and check it regularly throughout the semester.
