When We Don't Have Class on Tuesday

Here is the Zoom link for optional drop ins when we don't have class on Tuesday. This is for someone who has a question or simply wants to discuss an idea they might be pursuing or wanting to pursue for the class. Things like that. I will be on at 2:25 but if nobody comes in, I will be gone at 2:30. This will be first come, first served, so if you're in the waiting room it means someone is ahead of you.
