E-MAIL
Please keep your questions sent by e-mail to an administrative nature. Technical questions related to
class material should be asked in class or during office hours.
EXAM PREPARATION
The major source of information will come from the lectures, homework, and textbook readings. Students
should read the applicable chapter before attending the scheduled lecture. In-class lectures will assume that
students have read the chapters and will focus on expanding upon information contained in the textbook and
answering students questions. Not reading the chapters before attending class will significantly reduce the
benefit which students may obtain by attending lectures. For additional study materials, students may use the
WileyPlus feature titled Read, Study & Practice.
REGRADE POLICY
After your exams are graded you are encouraged to compare your answers with the solution key to confirm
your exam was scored correctly. If you wish to question the grading of an exam you must do so BEFORE
handing in the next exam. Scores will only be changed on the last exam taken. Review of your final needs to be
completed within the first two weeks of the following quarter. Any question may be posed to the instructor for
re-grade and that problem will be graded by the instructor from scratch. Re-grades could result in additional
OR fewer points than initially assigned.
EXTRA CREDIT
There is no extra credit available in this course.
GRADE POSTING
Periodically throughout the quarter the grade sheet will be posted on the class GauchoSpace site so each
student can review their scores to determine they have been recorded accurately. For privacy reasons, the
scores will be posted using a portion of each students perm number. The grade sheet will also be protected
with a username and password that you can obtain in lecture. If you prefer your scores not be posted in this
fashion please let me know. For privacy reasons, scores will not be distributed via e-mail.
ATTENDANCE
You are responsible for all that is said and done in class.
STUDENTS WITH TEMPORARY AND PERMANENT DISABILITIES
If you are a student with a disability and would like to discuss special academic accommodations, please
contact me during my office hours.
SCHOLASTIC DISHONESTY
Instances of scholastic dishonesty will be handled in the most extreme fashion, as prescribed by University
policy.
