Orientation Quiz - Fall 2012
In order to prepare for this quiz you need to read the Orientation document and read the course syllabus
found on the Syllabus page. Make sure you do this before starting the test. And I suggest you have
printed copies of both documents available for reference. There are only 15 questions so the quiz
should not take too long. There's no time limit on the quiz, but..... I don't recommend you take hours to
do the quiz.
It is very important that you take the quiz by the deadline which is the first day of class. Attendance
will be taken from quiz submittals. Students who fail to submit the quiz on time may be dropped so that
students on the waiting list can move on to the roster.
