Assignments & Academic Calendar
Assignments will not be graded. They are given so you can learn the material and
practice for the tests.
Note: Only pencils and blank paper are allowed during tests. No electronic devices
of any kind are allowed. Test dates are subject to change.
Test Dates
All tests are weighted equally. Each test will contain an extra credit problem. No
other extra credit will be given.

Your grade will be based only on your scores as described above. PLEASE do not
ask me to change your score/grade or give you a score/grade for any other reason. I
know that some of you will lose scholarships, be deported, etc. if you do not make
a certain score/grade; there is nothing I can do about this. Of course, if a mistake
was made in scoring, I will correct it. Any requests for changes to scores must be
made within 30 days after the day the graded material was returned to the class.
Any request for a grade change must be made within 60 days after the day that
grades were posted.
All make-up exams are scheduled and given at the discretion of the instructor.
Make-up exams are only given to those students who coordinate the missing of an
exam prior to the originally scheduled exam date and time, or for an emergency.
Students are expected to be respectful to each other and to the course instructor.
Disruptive behavior in the class room is not tolerated.
These descriptions and timelines are subject to change at the discretion of the
Professor.
