What is Piazza?

All class related discussion is on Piazza , which is a Question & Answer system designed to get you answers from classmates and instructors fast.

Ask questions on Piazza rather than emailing the teaching staff so everyone can benefit from the response. You have the option to participate both under your real name or anonymously.
