  1. Mandelbaum suggests that one should surround themselves with really great people in order to bolster their chances of success.  But how can we meet these people?  She explains that you can meet people anywhere, from Border's to the supermarket. You never know where a valuable relationship might develop, she adds.

  2. Professor Sylvia Ceyer discusses hybridization and chemical bonding. Using methyl nitrate as an example, Professor Ceyer describes how to find the lowest energy Lewis structure and explains bond symmetry, hybrid orbitals, and atomic orbitals. Moving onto intramolecular interactions, the discussion breaks down the origin of a bad hair day: hydrogen bonding, water, and keratin.

  3. Guest Lecturer, Setup of the Ice Cream Store Problem, with Customer, Cashier, Clerk, and Manager Threads, The Different Constraints on the Various Types of Threads, Writing the Main Function, Spawning the Various Threads, Handling the Manager-Clerk Interaction Using the Inspection Struct, Which Uses a Semaphore to Signal to the Manager That the Clerk Is Ready for Inspection, As Well as a Semaphore that Ensures that the Clerk Will Wait for ...more

  4. The boom in European colonial expansion in the second half of the nineteenth century, the so-called New Imperialism, can be seen to follow from three principle factors, in ascending order of importance: religious proselytizing, profit, and inter-imperial political strategy. With respect to the latter concern, the conflicts emerging from imperialism set the stage for World War I. Along with its military and industrial consequences, imperial...more

  5. According to Larry Page, co-founder of Google, Not many companies are innovators in both technology and business. In order to be successful in technical innovation, you must also understand the business and marketing side, he adds.

  6. Komisar relates some of the advice that George Lucas, acclaimed director of the Star Wars series, gave him in order to create compelling and visionary ideas: It is difficult to paint on a blank canvas, but it is easier to do so when there are few dots already splashed on. The notion of innovating around inchoate concepts are applicable to the entrepreneurship business, Komisar notes.

  7. Order of Operations.

  8. After a brief introduction to Plato's Phaedo, more arguments are offered in this lecture in defense of the existence of an immaterial soul. The emphasis here is on the fact that we need to believe in the existence of a soul in order to explain the claim that we possess free will. This is an argument dualists use as an objection to the physicalists: since no merely physical entity could have free will, there must be more to us than just bei...more

  9. This course explores the basic principles of chemistry and their application to engineering systems. It deals with the relationship between electronic structure, chemical bonding, and atomic order. It also investigates the characterization of atomic arrangements in crystalline and amorphous solids: metals, ceramics, semiconductors, and polymers (including proteins). Topics covered include organic chemistry, solution chemistry, acid-base eq...more

  10. Professor Sylvia Ceyer discusses the rates of chemical reactions, factors affecting rates of reactions, measuring reaction rates, and common rate expressions. The discussion then moves to the rate laws and highlights the order of reaction in reactants/products, overall reaction order, units for k, and integrated rate laws (specifically, first order half-life).

  11. Professor Sylvia Ceyer covers radioactive decay and its various uses in modern medicine. Second order half-life, as a second order integrated rate law, is then discussed. The lecture concludes with the overlap of kinetics and chemical equilibrium: the equilibrium constant, elementary reactions, and an example, the decomposition of ozone.

  12. Professor Sylvia Ceyer investigates chemical reaction mechanisms: rate, order, molecularity, steady-state approximation, and rate determing steps.
