You may hand-write journals. You must complete your response journals for the day they are due, and they are due at the beginning of the class period for which they are assigned. Quizzes will be brief and unannounced. If a paper is late, you'll lose a letter grade per late day. You must turn in the paper and all homework assignments, no matter how late, to receive a final grade.
Attendance is mandatory.
Try to explain all your absences, preferably beforehand. After your fifth absence, your final grade will drop one letter grade per subsequent absence. If you're consistently late, I'll count you absent at my discretion. You'll fail if you plagiarize. Plagiarism is the unauthorized use of someone else's materials without citing the source or the use of that work as one's own.
