- Exam:
- The final exam has been scheduled by the registrar for Monday, 20 April 2015 from 14:00 to 17:00 in BEWS.
- Homework:
- Problem sets are posted in PDF on the lectures webpage. Your browser can be trained to open these files with the free program Acrobat Reader (or other PDF viewer). Problem sets will be collected at the beginning of class on Thursday; late homework will not be accepted. Your best ten problem sets will determine your homework grade. Graded homework can be picked up in the MATH 387 boxes outside of 201 Jeffery Hall.
- Written work:
- We write to communicate. Please bear this in mind as you complete assignments and exams. Work must be neat and legible to receive consideration. You must explain your work in order to obtain full credit; an assertion is not an answer.
- Technology:
- Students are strongly encouraged to use any available technology on the homework and project, but no technical aids will be allowed on the exam.
- Disabilities:
- Students with disabilities, who will be taking this course and may need disability-related accommodations, are encouraged to make an appointment to see the instructor as soon as possible. Also, please contact the Disability Services to register for support services.
- Academic integrity:
- It is the obligation of each student to understand the University's policies regarding academic integrity and to uphold these standards. Departures from academic integrity include plagiarism, use of unauthorized materials, facilitation, forgery, and falsification. Actions that contravene the regulations on academic integrity carry sanctions that can range from a warning to the loss of grades on an assignment to the failure of a course to a requirement to withdraw from the university. Students are encouraged to talk about the problems, but should write up the solutions individually. Students should acknowledge the assistance of any books, software, students, or professors.
