Work	Weekly Schedule for CIS12 (includes assignments)
COBOL Links	Information about a student version of COBOL. Note: There are other alternatives - this is compatible with the COBOL installed at BCC. Fujitsu offers a free COBOL compiler Some students have found this works well for them. www.infogoal.com/cbd/cbdhome.htm - another site offering information and links COBOL Style Forum RM/COBOL site
