Miscellaneous

Introduction

As a general rule I do not accept late homework, nor do I give make-up quizzes or exams. Quizzes will be announced so there is no need for one to arbitrarily miss class on quiz days. If you have a legitimate emergency, please contact the Office of Student Affairs. Student Affairs can verify your situation and will provide your professors with this verification.

Additional information

All students are responsible for maintaining the highest standards of honesty and integrity in every phase of their academic careers. The penalties for academic dishonesty are severe and ignorance of UGA policy is NOT an acceptable defense. Students should pay particular attention to sections 5 and 7 of the academic honesty statement found at the link below. www.uga.edu/ovpi/academic_honesty/culture_honesty.htm
