You’ve made a commitment to the class. You have responsibilities to fulfill.

Attend class and participate in classroom activities. Read the topics/chapters in your textbook that correspond to the lectures. Complete all assigned homework. Students should turn off all phones, pagers, radios, etc before entering the classroom. While in class, you are expected to exhibit appropriate behavior, treat others with respect, and use appropriate language. The instructor reserves the right to withdraw any student whose behavior or language is disruptive or inappropriate.

Attendance is part of your grade Do NOT miss an exam without making prior arrangements to reschedule the exam. I do not give make-up exams or allow you to retake an exam. The math lab course provides more flexibility regarding exams.

Math Placement Tests: The purpose of the Math Placement Exam is to assess a student’s background and place him/her in an appropriate level of mathematics so as to increase the likelihood of a student’s success. If a student believes that he/she has been misplaced in a math class, the student is responsible for speaking with his/her math teacher during the first week of class.
