Assigned reading is to be completed by the time of class. Your class participation grade will be based upon quizzes, attendance and meaningful contributions to class discussions. If you have commitments that will prevent you from being prepared for this class including work schedules, you should withdraw from the course. Assignments will be handed back in class. Students with questions about their individual work should meet the instructor during his office hours.
Students have one week after graded work is returned to inquire about grading methods.
The Instructor reserves the right to ask for proof of excuse. Students have a week to schedule a make-up exam. The Instructor discourages make-up exams since they inherently are unfair to students who take the exam at the appointed time. Late papers will be deducted a letter grade for every day the paper is late. Homework is only accepted on the date of assignment.
