Math Lab
The Southeast Campus Math Lab, located in room SE 8150 (8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., tentatively), is
available to all math students. It is open during normal school hours. Aids include audio
cassette/workbook helps, audio-video filmstrips, self-paced tutorial computer programs, and an
instructor for individual help.
Transferability
Please visit with the TCC Counseling Center or the Counseling Center at the college or university to
which you plan to transfer to determine transferability status of this course.

Teaching Methods
Class time will consist primarily of questions involving assigned homework problems and previously
covered material, lecture covering new material, and some surprises.
Attendance Policy
Class attendance is the responsibility of the student. Roll will be checked at the beginning of every
class. When a student misses class, he/she is responsible for material covered in class. Students
should be familiar with the college policy on attendance and withdrawal.
Make-up Test / Late Assignment
Exams cannot be made up. Homework will not be accepted late.
Evaluation Techniques
Final grades will be determined by homework scores, lab scores, four (4) regular exams and a final
exam. The grade on the final will replace any exam lower than the final exam.

Pager, Cell Phone, Food, and Beverage Policy
During class, all cell phones and pages must be turned off and pagers. The classroom is not the
appropriate place to take personal calls (only exception is emergencies.) Food is not allowed in the
classroom. Bottled beverages with a tight cap are the only beverages allowed.
Caveat
The schedule, procedures, and policies in this course syllabus are subject to change in the event of
extenuating circumstances. Students will be notified in class of any changes.
