If you are on the waitlist for CHEM010, you don’t have access to Canvas until you are officially enrolled in the class. Canvas is the digital home for all of our class materials and information outside of our regular meetings. I cannot guarantee you will get into the class if you are on the waitlist. Below are the things we will do in the beginning parts of our class if you are expecting to get in and want to start working.
