Drop Date: Please note that the University Drop Date March 28, 2011 deadline will be strictly enforced.
Attendance Policy: Math 112 meets four times a week; there are three lectures and one recitation hour. Recitation classes provide an additional opportunity for you to seek help with homework and concepts taught in class. Attendance at all classes (both lecture and recitation) will be recorded and is mandatory. Please make sure you read and fully understand the Department’s Attendance Policy. This policy will be strictly enforced.
Homework Policy: Problem solving is an essential part of learning calculus. Thus, it is vital that you complete all of the homework assignments by the specified dates. The homework assignments are online at www.mymathlab.com or www.coursecompass.com. In order to complete the assignments you need to have a student access code. Access codes are included with a new book that is bundled with MyMathLab; codes can be purchased separately from the textbook at the campus bookstore or online at the course website. If you buy a new book from another source make sure it is bundled with MyMathLab. In addition, on the first day of class your course instructor will give you an additional code needed to access the homework assignments. NOTE: Homework Assignments are DUE frequently (at least weekly) at the dates and times specified on the course website.

MATLAB Assignments: MATLAB is a mathematical software program that is used throughout the science and engineering curricula. Two MATLAB assignments will be given during the semester; tutors are available to help students having difficulties in accordance with a posted schedule.
Quiz Policy: Quizzes are given in class on a frequent basis (at least weekly). All of the quizzes will be graded. The homework and quizzes are intended to develop your problem-solving skills and to help you prepare for the exams.
Examinations: There will be three common midterm exams during the semester and one comprehensive final exam during the final exam week. Exams are held on the following days:
Exam 1:
February 9, 2011
Exam 2:

Makeup Exam Policy: There will be No make-up EXAMS or Quizzes during the semester. In the event the Final Exam is not taken, under rare circumstances where the student has a legitimate reason for missing the final exam, a makeup exam will be administered by the math department. In any case the student must notify the Math Department Office and the Instructor that the exam will be missed and present written verifiable proof of the reason for missing the exam, e.g., a doctors note, police report, court notice, etc., clearly stating the date AND time of the mitigating problem.
Further Assistance: For further questions, students should contact their Instructor. All Instructors have regular office hours during the week. These office hours are listed at the link above by clicking on the Instructor’s name. Teaching Assistants are also available in the math learning center.
Cellular Phones: All cellular phones and beepers must be switched off during all class times.
