Policies:

Grading:

Consult the handout.

Attendance:

All students are expected to attend every session of each course for which they are registered. Students are responsible for all that transpires in class whether or not they are in attendance. The College defines excessive absence or lateness as more than the equivalent of one week of class meetings during the semester. Excess absence or lateness may lead to failure in a course or removal from the class roster.

Make-ups:

Make-up tests will be given only for documented emergencies, and then only at my discretion and convenience. However, if you have a good reason, please do ask for consideration.

Disruptions:

Disruptive behaviors, as defined by the Student Handbook, will not be tolerated. College policy allows for the removal of disruptive students from class for the remainder of a class session in progress. Repeated disruptions in the classroom will lead to disciplinary action as specified in the Student Handbook. Pagers and cell phones are to be turned off at all times. If anyone wishes to reach you in an emergency, he or she should call the Mathematics Department Secretary (see the phone number above).

Use of Calculators:

not allowed --- in the class and during the final exam;

not recommended --- during home work.

Students with special needs:

If you are a student who has a disability and need reasonable accommodations, then please give me an advance notice about your special needs. If you have specific questions about obtaining these accommodations, you can call the Counselling Center at (631) 851-6250.
