* SAGE talk on Thur at 5pm in the room by elevator on 4th floor

* further discussion about student projects

* linalg today -- I'll discuss newforms / oldforms later when 
  they arise naturally.

* Ralph talks tomorrow at 4pm: "Elliptic Curves"

* I talk tomorrow at 5pm: "How SAGE works"

Our schedule:
[] Linear algebra 1: computing echelon forms
[] Linear algebra 2: decomposition algorithms

[] Higher Weight Modular Symbols 1: basic definitions & how to compute
[] Higher Weight Modular Symbols 2: Hecke operators on them
[] Higher Weight Modular Symbols 3: using to compute modular forms

[] Newforms 1: Atkin-Lehner-Li theory
[] Newforms 2: Computing (and storing!) systems of eigenvalues
[] Special Values of L-functions using modular symbols

[] (may 29 -- memorial day holiday)
[] Sturm's bound: Congruences between modular forms and gen. Hecke algebras
[] Serre's conjectures: more precise statement and computational issues
