Policies

  • No laptops, Internet appliances (e.g. smart phones) can be used during lectures or exams.
  • No late work accepted. If you can't make lecture (for whatever reason) then email a PDF of your hw to the TA for grading before the start of the lecture (if the grader receives after start of lecture then your hw won't be graded). Of course you can also always give your hw to another student to turn in for you too.
  • If an exam or quiz is open book then only the course textbook can be used (no electronic copies, older/international editions, or photocopies).
  • The final exam will not be returned at the end of the semester, not even temporarily for you to review.
  • Cheating or plagiarism will result in an automatic F grade in the course (so do your own work!)
