The following is a list of classes that I have recently taught or
am planning to teach in the near future at USC Sumter. Students access
to the course syllabi, course outlines, quizzes and old exams for many
of these courses are available through the USC network, which can be accessed
through an on-campus computer. Materials are generally in a "pdf" file
format that can be read and printed using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
