You and I have important responsibilities related to our joint participation in this course. That work needs to be ready to submit or use as otherwise indicated at the time called for, not later, and usually not earlier. In other words, be prepared by doing what's expected of you. I'm here, and my colleagues are here, to help you learn. That's difficult if not impossible to do when the people we're trying to help aren't interested in learning or helping themselves to learn.
Business is exciting, challenging, and fun.
Even when it's not fun, it's always challenging, and almost invariably interesting. We want you to enjoy our experience together this semester. We're here to help you learn about and understand business. Exhibit 2 depicts the grades I'll assign to your marketing work. Exhibit 3 depicts the grade ranges for your final grade in marketing.
