Office hours for both faculty members are from 15:00 to 16:00 every Friday, but please make reservations in advance by e-mail (andok for Ando and ohmi for Omi).
Remarks 1
We will distribute the attendance sheet to each person and ask them to write their questions and comments about the lectures on that day. At the beginning of the next session, we will answer important questions without giving the name of the person who asked the question, so that everyone could better understand it.
