Policy
Attendance for lectures is not required; however, each student is responsible for material
covered in class. Furthermore, attendance is encouraged -- lectures augment the text, and
part of the course grade is based on laboratory work. Finally, please note that there will
not be any make up assignments, or tests, and each student is required to take the final
on Wednesday, December 14 from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM, 2016; failure to take the final
will result in a grade of F for the course.
