Class Policies
Dr. Riggs

---

• Assignments (Homework & Programs)
• All work is individual unless expressly decriibed as a group project in the written assignment description.
• All group work must contain the names of all participants on each submission.
• All work is subject to inquiry by questioning the author as to the content, methods, etc. used to produce the work.
          (You can get help but you must understand the result)
• In any case, the grade finally depends on my estimation of your knowledge and understanding of the written content.
• You must submit assignments at the times and in the manner prescribed. Otherwise the assignment is unacceptable and the grade is 0.
• Attendance
• Attendance is expected at ALL class meetings, especially including:
• exams
• finals week
• before and after vacations/holidays
• Attendance means present, prepared and participating
• The only excuse for non-attendance is an excuse from the Dean of A&S.
• Un-excused failure to attend >= 4 hours (50 minutes/hr) of classes will result in 1 of:
• administrative withdrawal
• loss of 1 letter grade per 4 class hours  missed
• Attendance is measured by:
• presence at quizzes, exams, etc.
• failure to hand in homework or other in class assignments
• roll calls
• 'Makeup's'
• Quizzes, homework: NONE
• Programs: NONE (programs are submitted electronically on or before the due date)

(If the number of quizzes, homeworks, programs, etc. is adequate (> 4) one will be 'dropped')
• Exams : with excuse from the dean, the final will replace 1 exam
• Grade Changes
• The grade on any item may be reviewed only until the end of the next week of classes after the item (homework, quiz or exam, etc.) was returned. (Except see below.)
• Recording errors will be fixed at any time.
