Homework, Exams, and Grades:
Homework Policy:
Homework is due promptly before 4 PM Friday. Turn in homework either
1. to me personally in recitation or during office hours;
2. under my personal office door;
3. front and center on my personal office desk; or
4. by special arrangement approved in advance by me (for example, you might need to email me a homework if you are detained
in another city).
Late or improperly submitted homework will never be accepted. Late or improperly submitted homework will never be
accepted. Late or improperly submitted homework will never be accepted. If you know in advance you will be unable
to turn in homework when it's due, you should plan to turn it in ahead of time. If you are unavoidably prevented
from submitting homework for a good reason, you still may not turn it in late. Religious holidays are not an excuse
for late homework!!! If you know that there is an impending religious holiday, it is your responsibility to make
arrangements to submit homework early. Since homework is only due once a week, this should be manageable. I will
drop your lowest homework score to allow for missed assignments or for assignments that pose special difficulty.
Homework must be neat, well-organized, and legible. Ragged margins, multi-column and otherwise over-dense formats,
and unstapled sheets are unacceptable. If your handwriting is difficult to read (as mine can be), type your homework
(as I do). If you tend to scratch out or erase incorrect parts of solutions (as I do), do a rough draft or type your
homework (as I do). Write in paragraphs, sentences, and English words. Use punctuation and conjunctions to indicate
your flow of thought rather than arrows or telepathy. Shoot for lucidity rather than terseness.
Exam Policy:
Major premise: Exam policy is generally the province of faculty.
Minor premises: I am not faculty and the professor is.
Conclusions: You should go to the professor with any questions you may have about exam policy, not to me. Also, make
arrangements for alternate exam times through the professor, not through me.
Final Course Grades: See the professor about how the various assignments get merged together to form a final grade. If you don't like your final grade, don't expect me to do anything about it, because the professor is the only one able to consider grade adjustments. (Also, even if I could change your grade, I almost certainly wouldn't.) Likewise, talk to the professor about taking an incomplete. (My advice: Avoid incompletes at all cost.)
The text for the course will be "Advanced Engineering Mathematics", by Zill and Cullen.
