Although the campus registration system may say that the class is full,
there typically is a great deal of turnover in the first few weeks and
there will be space for anyone who wishes to enroll.  Come to the first
class meeting, and the instructor will sign your enrollment card.

  The course relies on notes and on class lectures.  For questions that
remain unanswered in lectures, there are is an optional discussion
section each week.   There are four different meeting times for the
discussion section.  

    Office hours of the professor are Tue, Thu 2:10-3:00 and by appointment.
    However, the professor will meet with students to discuss exams,
    homework, missed classes, difficulties in understanding lectures, and
    similar class issues ONLY AFTER the student has raised the issues in
    a discussion section and failed to resolve them there.

For students who wish to have a textbook to assist them, two optional
textbooks are recommended here, but almost any textbook on Vision will
suffice as will the Vision chapters in almost any textbook on Sensation
and Perception.

  TEXTBOOK (Recommended, not required)
    Title:  Vision Science -- Photons to Phenomenology
    Author:  Stephen E. Palmer
    Publisher:  MIT Press, Cambridge, MA. (hardcover, 810 pp).

  An alternative textbook (less complete, recommended, not required):
   Goldstein, E. B.  Sensation and Perception.  Belmont, CA:  Wadsworth
     Publishing Co. 

    Two copies of the textbook, Palmer, Vision Science, have been put on
RESERVE in the "Gateway Study Center" opposite the main library.   Also
on reserve is Goldstein: Sensation and Perception (5th Ed).  In fact,
there are two extra copies (four in all) of the Palmer textbook in the
library which could be borrowed if it happens that both reserve copies
are out.  So, there should nearly always be a book available to use for
up to two hours (or longer if not needed by someone else).
