Recommended Learning Method:

Missed work policy: A student shall be offered reasonable accommodation in the event that he or she misses a major assessment activity for a valid and documented reason. Examples of such reasons for making up exams are serious illness, family death, etc. Contact me immediately if you need to arrange for a make-up, and provide appropriate documentation.

Calculator: A graphing calculator is not required, but may be used at your preference. You can check out TI-83 or TI-83 Plus from the Department of Mathematics (MSCS 401) free of charge. However, no calculator is allowed on examinations.

University Syllabus Attachment: Contains drop deadlines and procedures, as well as many other important dates and university policies.
