In this class, academic dishonesty will not be tolerated and action will be taken not only to prevent cheating, but also to bring charges against students suspected of cheating, plagiarism, or fabrication. Students are expected to attend scheduled classes and not be absent without adequate reason. While I will not take attendance on a regular basis, I expect to see you in class each lecture period. Only through regular class participation can you gain the most from this course. It is your responsibility to make up any deficiencies in required work that result from your absence in class.
Disruptive conduct includes loud or disruptive behavior in the classroom and excessive noise.
This means persistent talking during class to the point of distracting other students. I will not tolerate talking in class unless you are engaged in discussion with me about lecture material. Students who persist with talking in class after having been asked to be quiet will be reported to the Dean of Students for disciplinary action, including removal from the class. Exams must be turned in when requested to be considered for grading. A bank of sample exam questions is available on the ANSC251 web site.
