Students will be penalized for more than two unexcused absences. I will not grant extensions on papers. I also will not reschedule the mid-term or the final exam for an individual student, except in the case of illness or a family emergency, and with a note from the Dean of Students. The paper is due April 6. I will pass out the topics for the paper two weeks in advance.
Papers are due at the beginning of class.
They must be typed and double-spaced. They should be well written, well organized, and proofread. Deductions will be made for typographical, spelling and grammatical errors. Late papers will be penalized one full letter grade per day. The reading load in this course is moderate, but sometimes difficult.
