Assignments are due on the date specified unless prior arrangements have been made with the instructor. Late assignments will receive lower grades, but all assignments must be completed to pass this course. Lectures and discussions lead from one idea ot another. Through in-class discussion, students learn from each other. Many grades will be derived from in-class work.
Absent students are responsible for all class materials and assignments.
A final comprehensive examination will be given on Friday, May 10, at 9 a.m. Information from class lectures, guest speakers, handouts, discussions, textbooks and assigned research may be used. The last regular class day of the semester will be a make-up day. Arrangements must be made with the instructor in advance. The make-up assignment and quiz will be different from any of the others during the semester and will be more difficult. Students will be able to select one writing assignment from the semester and rewrite it for an improved grade.
