Regular attendance is absolutely vital for the successful completion of this course. This class will comply with CSU attendance policies and unexcused absences may result in a Failure for absence. Map assignments must be turned in on time. I will average the quiz grades and drop the two lowest grades. All missed quizzes will count as a zero.
Most students are honest and hard working.
They understand that education prepares a person for her or his life's work and broadens a person's understanding of the world. Cheating on a test or an assignment is the equivalent of robbing one's own savings account. Such things do not hurt the professor nor the other students, but only the student who takes shortcuts and misses out on this rather expensive undertaking. If a person demonstrates a lack of integrity in either testing or written assignments, I will flunk them and report such behavior to the academic dean of this institution.
