Jack Lynch's Course Materials
I've been teaching at the university level since autumn 1994,
when I was a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania.
In that first semester our department was using Gopher, rather
than the full-fledged World Wide Web, so the materials for that
course are now not easily found. For the rest, yllabi, readings,
and other materials are preserved here for posterity:
