Critical Thinking and Writing . Allyn and Bacon, 1999. If you miss class, it's your job to pick up handouts, assignments, and notes. The first two items come from me, the last item comes from your classmates. If you miss more than two classes, you'll lose 5 points from your final grade for each absence over two.
Assignments are due when assignments are due.
A deadline is a deadline. And a rose is a rose is a rose. Be sure to keep me informed if you run into problems. I do not, under any circumstances, accept computer problems as an excuse for turning in work late. Back up your work on more than one disk and allow yourself plenty of time for your computer to mess things up.
