Late Policy Late work will be penalized one full letter grade for any part of the first calendar day and one full letter grade each day thereafter. For example, an “A” will become a “B” etc. All previously unsubmitted late work must be turned in by 5:00 PM on the last day of the classes to receive course completion credit.

Examinations Exams will be given during class time in the design studio. Children, pets, and guests are not allowed in studio during the exam. Unless otherwise announced, exams will be multiple choice/true-false questions.

Examinations Exams will be open book and open notes and will cover all lecture, reading, and recitation materials. Bring a calculator, a #2 or HB pencil, and any assigned reading materials.

Examinations Arrangements for students with learning difficulties should be made prior to the examination. Makeup exams will only be given for medical or legal related reasons.

Examinations Students arriving late will be penalized for their tardiness. Results will be posted a minimum of 24 hours after all students have taken the exam.

Grading A 465 points C 365 points A- 450 points C- 350 points B+ 435 points D+ 335 points B 415 points D 315 points B- 400 points D- 300 points C+ 385 points E: <300 points.

Class Leadership & Participation Student interaction is imperative Questions are strongly encouraged Interaction is an important part of my teaching philosophy Questions and the resultant discussions bring richness and vitality to the course Come to class… ask questions…
