Some cases will be discussed in class, while others will be discussed and submitted in writing. Class participation and written cases represents a significant portion of the grade. Selected articles from The Wall Street Journal , and other sources including the internet, will be assigned and or discussed in class. This may cause some changes in the ordering of topics discussed. You may also be asked to read other articles or be familiar with certain topics, which will not be discussed, but will be on exams.
Attendance is taken at the beginning of the class.
Students coming in late will be counted as absent because it is disruptive to both me and the class. There are about 15 weeks, or 30 class periods per semester. These points will be part of the final grade point average. The exams cover information from class lectures, discussions, text and cases, guest speakers, and assigned readings and other information pertaining to this class from the WSJ and elsewhere. Exams will include essays, problems and multiple choice questions.
