In effect, you, and only you, grade yourself. The responsibility not to jeopardize your GPA or your graduation rests solely with you. There will be occasions throughout the semester for students to write, on a voluntary basis, very short answers to questions which arise in class. Points for such answers will be added to exam scores and can prove important at the end of the semester. Please note that there will be no other extra-credit work in this course .
All exams have to be taken at their scheduled times.
Students with learning disabilities who want to take exams at the Disabilities Support Service Office, must provide me with a copy of the Faculty Contact Sheet available from Disability Support Services by the end of the second week of the semester and with the Test Form no later than five working days before an exam. The grading system is thus based on a total of 360 points. Your course grade will be based on the number of points you have accumulated on the exams. Good to excellent class participation may be decisive in border-line cases. A grade of Incomplete will be given only in accordance with university regulations as stated in the current Catalog .
