Master List of Shortcuts

Productivity drives our economy and makes us valuable contributors. Increasing productivity involves continuously learning how to output more in less time. Each time I begin a class, I ask each student to contribute a shortcut. I'm developing a master list, and would like to share them with you.

Nematode

I have an interesting picture of a meta-nematode from 32-HORT-513, Plant Pathology and Disease Management. Read about it here.
Coming soon - slides for Data Structures and Algorithms.

This class will include expanded coverage of patterns (command, factory, proxy, singleton), recursion, linked lists, stacks, queues, and more.
These slides will also feature a new menu and navigation system, to make finding specific information much easier. I will continue to deploy the new navigation site wide as time permits.

Take a look at the New Hospitality Management Certificate program available at UC's College of Applied Science.
