X. Class Policies
1) ATTENDANCE: While attendance may not be a strict course requirement, submission of homework will be done
during class hours.
2) RESPECT: Everyone is expected to keep an open mind and respect everyone else’s opinions. Disrespect to
another’s person will, in no way, be tolerated.
3) INTEGRITY: You are expected to answer the class exercises and problem sets independently. However, in cases
that you need to study in groups and discuss the exercises, writing of the solution should be done independently.
4) DELIVERABLES: All problems sets have to be submitted at the beginning of each class.
5) OTHERS: Other UA&P and SMN rules and general academic policies will apply.
