Homework Policy:

Written homework will be assigned daily and will be due at the beginning of the next class meeting. Late papers will not be graded, and neatness counts; if the grader can't read your paper, you get no credit. In calculating the homework component of your final grade, your lowest three scores will be disregarded.

If you cannot turn in an assignment in person, you can place your homework in the clearly marked boxes outside the classroom before the class meeting at which it is due. Graded homework will be returned in class as promptly as possible; if you are not there to receive it in person, you can retrieve your graded homework from the same boxes mentioned above.


Grading Scheme:

Final grades will be assigned according to the following scheme:

Homework            20%   
Hour Exam 1         20%  
Hour Exam 2         20%
Final Exam          40% 


The Honor Principle:

On Exams: No books or notes will be allowed, and students must not give or receive help from others during the exam. Calculators, including graphing calculators, are not required for this course, but their use is allowed on exams. Students with calculators capable of symbolic manipulation or storing formulae or notes are expected not to use these features during the exam. Doing so will constitute a violation of the Honor Code.

On Homework: You are expected and encouraged to work together on homework assignments. However, you must write up your solutions by yourself and without outside assistance.


Disabilities:

Students with disabilities --- including chronic diseases, learning disabilities, and psychiatric disabilities --- who will be taking this course and may need appropriate accommodations are encouraged to make an appointment to see me as soon as possible. These students should also stop by the Academic Skills Center in Collis Center to register for support services.

The Academic Skills Center also offers workshops and academic counseling to all students with problems involving study skills.
