You are expected to complete assignments on your own. No collusion is permitted on homework, projects, and tests. The penalty for collusion is a zero for that assignment or project. If you are unable to take a test a notice of 2 hours must be given. Documentation is required.
Attendance is mandatory. Your final grade will be multiplied by (N-A)/(N-1)
where A is the number of classes you do not attend and N is the number of class
meetings.
