Grades will be assigned
based on a point system. The points accumulated from the 4 lecture and 4 laboratory exams will be combined. The total number of
points will then be assigned letter grades as follows: 90-100%
of all points = A 80-89%
of all points = B 70-79%
of all points = C 60-69%
of all points = D Below
60% of all points = F EXAMINATIONS
4
lecture exams - 100 points each
= 400 points 4
lab exams 100 points each
= 400 points
TOTAL POSSIBLE POINTS = 800 points
EXAMINATIONS MUST BE TAKEN
AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME!
EXAMINATIONS MUST BE
RETURNED TO THE INSTRUCTOR FOLLOWING STUDENT REVIEW. MAKEUP
EXAMS WILL BE GIVEN ONLY UNDER TRULY EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES. MAKEUP
EXAMS MAY BE, AT THE OPTION OF THE INSTRUCTOR, GIVEN IN A FORMAT

SUCH AS CHILDREN AND FRIENDS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN THE CLASSROOM OR LABORATORY
DURING CLASS TIME. DISABILITY
SUPPORT SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE ON EACH CAMPUS. A STUDENT WHO MAY NEED AN
ACCOMMODATION DUE TO A DISABILITY MUST SEE ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. A LETTER
FROM DISABILITY SUPPORT SERVICES (DSS) AUTHORIZING YOUR ACCOMMODATIONS WILL
BE NEEDED. BEHAVIOR
Each
and every student is expected to behave in ways which promote a teaching and learning atmosphere. Students have the right to learn; however, they do not have
the right to interfere with the
freedom of the faculty to teach or the rights of other students to
learn. Students will be treated respectfully in return for respectful
behavior. All
in-class discussions should be carried out in a way that keeps the classroom
environment respectful of the rights of others. This means that, for example,
students should not interrupt someone else who is talking regardless of
whether that person is the instructor or another student. Students should not
monopolize class time by repeatedly interrupting and asking questions in a
manner which hinders the learning process of others. Students are also
expected to conduct themselves in ways which create a safe learning and
teaching environment that is free from such things as violence, intimidation,
and harassment. Please
make sure that you obtain and read a copy of the current STUDENT HANDBOOK
which contains the student Code of Conduct. READING ASSIGNMENTS
THE
ASSIGNED CHAPTERS SHOULD BE READ BEFORE CLASS. THIS WILL MAXIMIZE YOUR ABILITY TO COMPREHEND THE
MATERIAL. CANCELLATION
OF CLASSES ALL
MATERIAL WILL BE COVERED DURING THE SEMESTER. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THE
ASSIGNED MATERIAL, REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER. SYLLABUS DATE LECTURE TOPIC CHAPTER #
