CLASS POLICIES
A. ABSENCES AND TARDINESS
Every student is required to attend his classes regularly and punctually. Absence or persistent tardiness for more than 20% of the
total number of class meetings during the entire course shall be sufficient reason for disqualifying a student from taking final
examination or for dropping the student without credit. A student who is late for class for at least 10 minutes will be marked as
absent. A student will incur an absence for every 3 times that he is tardy.
B. MAKE-UP EXAM
Every student is required to attend the final exam, midterm exam, and at least five quizzes. If he is absent on days when tests are
scheduled, he should notify me in advance and bring documentation of the excuse upon returning to class. Unexcused absences
from exams will result in a zero grade. Make–up exams will be arranged only under extraordinary circumstances. Acceptable or
valid reasons for missing an exam include religious observances, athletic trips, illness and urgent circumstances beyond your
control. Makeups must occur within one week of the regularly scheduled exam or quiz, otherwise a zero score will be given.
C. HOMEWORK POLICY
There will be 6 homework assignments (3 for midterm and 3 for final). Each assignment is worth 30 points. These assignments
will be posted on the course website and are mostly due on Mondays in the beginning of class. Any assignment can be late for up
to 1 day without penalty. Late homework for two to three days loses 10 points. After 4 days, zero credit is given for late
assignments.
15
