====== Math 527 Course Policies ======

===== Lecture =====

You are expected to attend lecture. What you are responsible for understanding is defined by what is covered in lecture. 

You are expected to pay attention and not talk during lecture, both for your own comprehension and as a matter of politeness. If you have a small incidental question about the lecture that you must ask your neighbor, please whisper. But also feel free to raise your hand and ask the question out loud.

Do not use cell phones, laptops, or other electronic devices during lecture. You can check the time on the lecture hall's clock.

===== Recitation section =====

On Tuesdays, the teaching assistants will present example problems and answer questions to the class at large. 

Thursday sections will be open-door "assisted study halls". Come in to work on the homeworks or study for the exams. The teaching assistants will circulate and answer questions for individuals or in small groups. 

===== Homework =====

Homeworks are due in lecture on Fridays. 

You are allowed and even encouraged to work together on homeworks, but what you turn in must be your own work. 

===== Exams =====

Exams will take place in lecture time on Fridays. Make-up exams will be given under only for
extraordinary circumstances, such as a serious injury or a death in the family, or for University-excused absences, such as scheduled athletic competitions. Official documentation is required.

Write your full name and section number on the exam, **legibly**. You will lose 5 points if we cannot read your name or your section number is wrong or missing.

===== Grades =====

Your final grade will be computed as follows
   20% homework
   60% four exams (15% each)
   20% final exam
  --------------
  100% cumulative grade
  
The probable conversion to letter grade will be (with +/-'s near borders)  
  90-100% A
  75-90%  B
  60-75%  C
  45-60%  D
  0-45%   F
