The final exam is not comprehensive. Scholastic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, any effort to seek assistance during an in-class exam from other persons or from books, notes, etc. It is also scholastic dishonesty to submit assignments that are plagiarized or written in collusion with another or to falsify any records connected with this course or any examination. If you are uncertain about what constitutes plagiarism, see me prior to turning in an assignment, or review the information about avoiding plagiarism provided by the Drew Department of Composition. Please see me during the first week of class if you need to discuss appropriate academic accommodations that you may require as a student with a disability.
All assignments are due at the beginning of class on the due date indicated on the course schedule.
Late assignments and papers will be penalized by the equivalent of one letter grade if they are not turned in at the time they are due but are turned in within 24 hours from the deadline, and by the equivalent of an additional letter grade for each 24 period thereafter. This policy may be waived in circumstances of illness or other emergencies only if you receive an explicit extension from me prior to the deadline. Exams will be given on the dates indicated on the course schedule. You must let me know in advance if you must miss a exam.
