All students should read the First Lab Announcements and do Labs 01 & 02, including those who miss the beginning-of-term labs. There are important exercises for setting up your computer environment and ensuring that it works correctly for this course.
If you received your password from an MFCF Consultant or have never set (changed) your password, instructions are in Lab 01. You must do this within 2 weeks or your account may be disabled at any time.
