Homework: Homework assignments will be due every Friday at the beginning of class. No late homework will be accepted without documented medical excuse.
Quizzes: There will be a brief quiz every Friday at the beginning of class. This will consist of one problem from the homework and one other problem related to the covered material. In addition unannounced quizzes are always a possibility, especially when your instructor thinks that attendance is low or that you are goofing off.

Grade Scale: The grade scale will be
90-100% A, 80-89% B,
70-79% C, 60-69% D, modified according to how much compassion your
instructor can gather. This will depend on a variety of factors,
including how hard he thinks that he made the exams and quizzes, and
how hard he thinks the class is working.
