Most class periods will consist of going over problems assigned for materials covered by the prior period lecture and a lecture over new reading material. Sometimes you will have an assignment from one class meeting to the next that is not pre-listed on the schedule. These may be variations of my lecture examples or problem types that the class is struggling with. Lectures are not a substitute for reading. A failing grade for the course will be given for acts of dishonesty.
Exams are to be solely the work of the student.
Problem assignments must be the individual work of the student, but may be discussed with colleagues. Textbooks may be used during the exam. An option is available for the final. I will arbitrarily call on persons to answer questions, to give solutions to assigned problems, or to report on relevant current events in the business press. Students will have the option to be passed over for participation for a very limited number of classes.
