The exams will consist of multiple choice and short answer questions, and they will be drawn primarily from the lectures. Your final grade will be calculated based on a total of 400 possible points. I have not curved the grades in past years, but I reserve the right to do so if the distribution of grades warrants. In accordance with university policy, attendance in lecture is not mandatory, but it is soley your responsibility to obtain notes from lectures that you miss. If you miss a lecture, you should plan to obtain detailed notes from a classmate to supplement the lecture outlines available at the class Website.
Documentation is required.
If the absence is forseable, you must notify me at least one week in advance of the anticipated absence. If the absence is unforseen, you must present documentation to me within one week of the missed exam to have the opportunity for a make-up exam. Our Code of Academic Integrity is explained in detail in the Undergraduate Catalog .
