More Class Logistics.  Brendan took this class and discussed the formulation and direction of the course.  It was decided that we would not cover the portion of the book devoted to logic, even though the author contends that logic is central to complexity theory (there are other opinions, and even he states in his preface that it is possible to skip the logic portion of the book).

More about the seminar nature of the course was also discussed.
