Viewing
These presentations may not display correctly using Netscape or Mozilla Firefox as your internet browser. If you experience difficulties, follow this link to download Internet Explorer for free. If you are finding that graphics are not loading correctly, it may also help to click on the "refresh/reload" page button. Many of these files are LARGE and may take awhile to load.

Downloading
Clicking on the name of the presentation opens a "slide show" of the presentation for you to view in your web browser. The links labeled "download PowerPoint file" provide you access to the original slides, which you are welcome to use as long as you properly cite and source the information. To download in Internet Explorer, left click on the link and choose to "save" the file to your computer. Then, open the file (it should open directly in Microsoft PowerPoint). Note: if you simply "open" the file marked PowerPoint, without downloading and opening it in the actual PowerPoint program, you will be provided a "slide show" of the presentation very similar to what you get when you click on the actual name of the presentation. To view either file properly in Netscape and Mozilla Firefox, left click on the link and choose to "open with" PowerPoint.
