    If you had trouble downloading the syllabus yesterday, please try again. Minor technical issues may have interfered with the process, but they should be resolved now. If you still have trouble, please contact [email protected].

    Thank you,

    I tried to download the PDF by clicking under the manual and all I get is the picture. I am using a Chrome browser to attempt the download load. There seems to be a problem here
