Course Syllabi

One of the reasons Dr. Willard was so highly respected as a teacher was because he handcrafted the syllabi for each class every time he taught it. He firmly believed that it was a disservice to his students to simply teach the same material over and over. He typed all of these himself, and kept previous versions of some of the pages for his own reference. In keeping with this, you will find some courses on this list more than once, and within each syllabus there may be different versions of handouts or tests reflecting the updates he made to the course over the years.
