Exams
There will be two in-class midterms and a final. There will be
no makeup exams, and no alternative times for exams. If you
have an official reason that prevents you from attending a midterm,
you must contact me by e-mail before the exam takes place,
and you must receive a response giving you permission to miss the
midterm. Your course grade will then be determined by your
performance on the remaining midterm and the final. If you miss a
midterm for unforeseen reasons beyond your control, please contact
me as soon as possible.
Although not recommended, four-function
calculators will be permitted in the exams. No other
electronic devices are allowed in any of the exams.
