ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I (CHE 230) Instructor: Folami Ladipo, CP-109 Tentative Lecture and Reading Schedule* * This schedule is provided to help guide your reading and preparation for class. I will of course drop and/or introduce additional topics as I understand the strengths and weaknesses of the class. Homework problems for Chapters 3-12 will be assigned in class while we are covering the material.
