Dear online,

A quick question: do you have any problem if IT folks (e.g., Help Desk or S=
HeD staff) register for these?  I've already put my name in for Wednesday, =
but I don't want us to take up seats that are meant for instructor-type-peo=
ple.  (I also don't know if any Help Desk or SHeD staff will be able to com=
e, but that's another issue.)

David
