Important Notices:

·         Class is cancelled if, without prior notice, the instructor is 20 minutes late.

·         If you cannot attend the lecture you should obtain lecture notes from a fellow student

·         Please turn off cell phones and pagers during the lecture, and especially during exams.

·         Students are advised to organize, summarize, and rewrite notes for review.  The data standard for the course is the textbook, with heavy reliance on lecture notes.

·         Students can check with the instructor at any time for your current class standing.

 

Students with disabilities:

Extended time in a distraction-free environment is an appropriate accommodation based on the student’s disability.  If you do have a disability and have not voluntarily disclosed the nature of your disability and support you need, you are invited to contact the Special Student Services Office, 734-9552, Ilima 105.
