Attendance Policy: You are allowed up to 6 unexcused absences during the semester. After that, your grade will be lowered by 1 notch, e.g., from B to B-, for every increment of 6 classes or a portion thereof that you miss.
Homework and Quizzes: A list of homework for the semester will be given to you along with this syllabus. While this homework will not be collected, it should be done, as it is instructive, and will serve as the basis for your (weekly) quizzes. Your two lowest quiz scores will be ignored in computing your quiz average. If you miss a quiz, it may not be made up.
Course Policies: Any student who has a need for accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact me privately to discuss the specific situation as soon as possible. Contact Disability Resources and Services at (215) 204-1280, 100 Ritter Annex, to coordinate reasonable accommodations for students with documented disabilities. Freedom to teach and freedom to learn are inseparable facets of academic freedom. The University has adopted a policy on Student and Faculty Academic Rights and Responsibilities (Policy # 03.70.02) which can be accessed here. Students will be charged for a course unless a withdrawal form is processed by a registration office of the University by the Drop/Add deadline date given below. For this semester, the crucial dates are as follows: * The semester begins Monday, August 30. * The last day to drop/add (tuition refund available) is Monday, September 13. * Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 25. * The last day to withdraw (no refund) is Monday, November 1. * The last day of classes is Wednesday, December 8. During the first two weeks of the fall or spring semester or summer sessions, students may withdraw from a course with no record of the class appearing on the transcript. In weeks three through nine of the fall or spring semester, or during weeks three and four of summer sessions, the student may withdraw with the advisor's permission. The course will be recorded on the transcript with the instructor's notation of "W," indicating that the student withdrew. After week nine of the fall or spring semester, or week four of summer sessions, students may not withdraw from courses. No student may withdraw from more than five courses during the duration of his/her studies to earn a bachelor's degree. A student may not withdraw from the same course more than once. Students who miss the final exam and do not make alternative arrangements before the grades are turned in will be graded F. The grade I (an "incomplete") is reserved for extreme circumstances. It is necessary to have completed almost all of the course with a passing average and to file an incomplete contract specifying what is left for you to do. To be eligible for an I grade you need a good reason and you should have missed not more than 25% of the first nine weeks of classes. If approved by the Mathematics Department chair and the CST Dean's office, the incomplete contract must include a default grade that will be used in case the I grade is not resolved within 12 months.
