     GRADING: Your grade will be based on a total of 600 points as
     follows: 
              3 one-hour exams   300 points
	      Final exam         200 points

     FINAL EXAM: The departmental final exam is scheduled for
     December 7 (Wednesday), 8:00-9:50 p.m.	
     
     CALCULATORS: A calculator without graphing capability, text memory, 
     symbolic operations and communication ability will be allowed on 
     the final exam.
     
     COURSE WITHDRAWAL: The last day for undergraduates to withdraw from 
     a full-session course is Friday, October 14.
     
     ACADEMIC CONDUCT: Academic honesty and mutual respect (student with 
     student and instructor with student) are expected in this course. 
     Mutual respect means being on time for class and not leaving early, 
     being prepared to give full attention to class work, not reading 
     newspapers or other material in class, not using cell phones or 
     pagers during class time, and not looking at another student's work 
     during exams. Academic misconduct, as defined by the Student Judicial 
     Code, will not be treated lightly.

     CAAR STATEMENT: If you have specific physical, psychiatric, or learning
     disabilities and require accommodations, please let your instructor know 
     early in the semester so that your learning needs may be appropriately 
     met. You will need to provide documentation of your disability to the 
     CAAR (Center for Access Ability Resources) Office located in the Health 
     Services Building, 4th floor.
