Outside Work: Only a portion of the work necessary to succeed in college takes place within class time. As a college student, you must expect to spend several hours a week doing course work outside of the class hours. In this class you will have homework which must be done prior to the next class session. However, you are expected to be doing work on your own initiative, particularly practicing in areas of weakness. In addition, you should be reading every day. Finally, take advantage of the resources this college makes available to you.

This is a college class; as such, I do not give grades; students earn them. You must be willing to devote time and effort outside of the class in order to not only pass this class, but to truly become ready for college credit classes. If you start to fall behind, you will find it difficult to catch up.

All this having been said, I am more than willing to meet with students individually during my office hours or at other times. Please feel free to come to me if you do not understand something or if you feel I need to review something.
