The Code of Student Academic Responsibility and all other University of South Carolina honor codes and rules governing plagiarism are in effect. These will often be partially or completely reviewed in class or via email, but preparation before class is required and will enhance class discussion and increase efficient learning. Fully understanding class session content will often depend on timely completion of exercises. Students are expected to complete all practice exercises in a timely fashion although most will neither be handed in nor graded. Failure to complete the exercises in a timely fashion will result in diminished learning and diminished performance on graded assignments.
