NOTE: These syllabi (course outlines) reflect my ideas, knowledge, and priorities at the time I taught the course, which may have been just one time more than a decade ago.
My approach to teaching, my course policies, and my understanding of the material are all constantly evolving, and I personally would not reuse any of these syllabi without extensive revision.
As such, I provide these in the spirit of sharing in the hope that you can find in them something to adapt or to inspire further exploration.
