Meeting times: TTh 12:30- 1:45 PM at 322 Boyd.

Exams: There will be three 1-hour exams announced well in advance of their date (tentative dates Sept. 25, Oct 30, Dec 2). Each exam will be worth 100 points. There will be no makeup exams.

Final exam: There will be a final exam worth 200 points on Tuesday, December 16 at 12:00.
All students must take the Final Exam.

Quizzes: There will be a ten-minute quiz almost every week. Each quiz will be worth 10 points. There will be a total of 10 - 12 quizzes. There will be no makeup quizzes. Your best 8 - 10 scores will be chosen to constitute (after possible renormalization) a quiz grade of a possible 100 points. Any missed quiz will be the one that you drop.

Homework: will not be graded. Quizzes will be based on homework problems.

Grading: You have a total of 600 possible points: 100 points for each of the three 1-hour exams, 100 points for the quiz, and 200 points for the Final Exam. You will be able to drop the lowest "100 points". The lowest "100 points" may be one half of the Final Exam. This gives you a possibility of 500 points. Your final grade will be determined from these 500 points as follows:

450-500 (>90%): A 400-449 (>80%): B 350-399 (>70% ): C 300-349 (>60% ): D
000-299 ( <60%): F

ADA: If you have special needs as addressed by the Americans with Disabilities Act and need any assistance, please notify the instructor immediately.

Attendance: Regular class attendance is important. I reserve the right to withdraw you from the class if you miss too many classes. Tell me in advance if you must come late or leave early.
