Exams: If a student has a conflict with the time of exam administrations due to
University sponsored events then it is the student’s responsibility to contact me one week
in advance to inform me of the conflict and to schedule a makeup for the exam. Under
emergency circumstances (i.e. hospitalization or death in the family) the student must
provide me with verification of the event in order to re-take the examination. Without
proper verification the student will not be allowed to makeup the exam. Exams for this
course will be given on the following dates:
• First Exam: Friday, February 3. Room: JWB 335. Time: Regular class time.
• Second Exam: Friday, March 9. Room: JWB 335. Time: Regular class time.

• Final Exam: Thursday, May 3. Room: JWB 335. Time: 10:30AM-12:30PM.
Caution: All students, regardless of course performance, must take the final exam. If a
student does not take the final exam then the student will receive a failing grade for the
course, no exceptions!

basement between buildings JWB and LCB. The tutoring center also has a computer lab

busy times, one’s question will usually be addressed in a short amount of time.
