Dear students,
I have spent the morning reading the evaluations, and it is pretty clear that most of you are seriously overwhelmed by the course workload.
After considering the pros and cons, I have decided to cancel the two remaining labs. So, no more labs, only homework. We will still hold the corresponding lab sessions, to provide homework support/Q&A.
Best,
Katerina
PS. There were two labs remaining: one on network+transport layer and one on security. Regarding the security lab, I will coordinate with the teachers that teach your upcoming security courses to make sure the key points of the lab are covered by their courses. Regarding the network+transport layer lab, its key points are covered (in much more depth, of course) by the MS-level TCP/IP course. So, those of you who are interested in the topic will have the opportunity to make up for the missed lab. And, needless to say, you are all free to do the labs anyway and ask us questions -- they will just not be covered by the exam.
