Note that daily reading assignments are given on
the homework page.
I reserve the right to give in-class, pop-quizzes
at any time. The purpose of these is to discourage skipping class and also
to motivate students to keep up with material. There will be no makeups;
students with valid excuses will receive credit based upon their performance
on the relevant exam.
The texts and solutions of old exams
are posted at the Exams icon.
Note that the Final Quiz (which counts for 10%
of your grade) is multiple choice, with no partial credit. Note also that
you must be present to take it, in class, on Wednesday, Dec. 7, 2011.
Copies of the quiz problems from 2009 and 2010 are posted at the Exams icon.
