Grading:  For full credit, full work must be shown.

                Tests: 40% (20% each)

                Homeworks: 20% (I will allow you to drop your lowest score)

                Final: 40%  ** The final may take the place of your lowest test grade ** 


Academic Honesty: 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 is not an acceptable defense.
