the semester in order to make appropriate arrangements. The Center for Disabled students Services

Student Conduct: Students are expected to act respectfully while taking this course. Cell phones
must be turned off before the start of class. This means that there is to be no texting or talking
on phones during class. If caught using a phone in class, students will be asked to leave for the
remainder of the lecture. Similarly, headphones shouldn’t be worn in class. I do not allow students to
use laptops during class. Cheating will not be tolerated. While I encourage students to work together
on homework and classwork, all other graded assignments such as quizzes, midterms, and the final
are individual.
