Computers are available for use without charge at several locations on campus. Attendance is mandatory. See Chapter 7 of SG . If you miss more than two classes, you will be administratively dropped from the course. If you do miss class, you are responsible for getting assignments from me and notes from a classmate.
Conferences are mandatory.
We will have small group conferences or in-class workshops on every paper. If you ever have a question, you should be sure to ask for clarification. Plagiarism , even when unintentional, is a serious offense. Please read appropriate pages in the SG Chapter 7carefully as you are responsible for understanding and following this policy. Both the Hacker handbook and the SG , Chapter 3, have guidelines for researching and for citing sources.
