lecture, lab and the assigned readings. You are responsible for all
assigned readings.
Exam Day Policy: Be on time. After the first student leaves NO more exams will be
given out. You must take all exams at the scheduled time. If an
emergency arises you must contact me by email or phone at least
one hour before the exam. If you miss an exam and don’t notify
me BEFORE the exam you may take a comprehensive final to
replace your lowest exam grade. (The final, Exam 5, grade can’t
be replaced by the comprehensive final). However, you are only
allowed to use this option ONE time.
Quizzes and
Attendance: At least once a week there will be a quiz over material covered in a
previous lecture. They will be worth 30 points each and they must
be taken during class. The quizzes can’t be made up or taken at
another time. Therefore to receive the 30 points you MUST be
present in class. These quizzes will also be used to determine
your attendance/participation. You are allowed to drop 2 quizzes
during the semester.
