Attendance is strongly recommended. Material not included into the texts or the course pack will be included in lecture. Lecture notes are not available from the instructor, and students will be held responsible for material presented in class. Missing more than two discussion sections will adversely affect your participation grade. Missing more than 4 is grounds for failure of the course.
All assignments are due at the beginning of class.
Plagiarism will result in definite failure for the assignment and possible failure for the course. Make sure you know what constitutes plagiarism. If you have questions about how to properly cite materials used in papers, please ask your instructor. Be aware that turning in the same assignment in two different classes also violates the academic integrity standards. The exact dates and subjects of these papers will be announced during the course of the semester.
