COURSE POLICIES:

1) Homework: Students are allowed to work in groups on homework. However each student is individually responsible for expressing their answers in their own terms. Also you may not acquire, read, or otherwise utilize answers from solutions handed out in previous terms. Homework is due at the beginning of class one week after it is assigned.

2) Exams: Please note the exam times above. Valid excuses for failing to meet an exam are personal illness or illness in your immediate family. You must observe the Honor Code with respect to examinations and all other aspects of this course.
