It will cover material taught on Monday, July 21 and before. Calculators are not allowed on quizzes and the midterm.

 

Missed Quizzes or Midterms: If a quiz is missed for a documented illness or other legitimate reason, it will be ignored, with other quizzes reweighted to compensate for the missed quiz. If you should miss the midterm for a valid reason, the 30% weight will be shifted onto the final exam. In all such cases, original written documentation, for example a doctor’s note or letter from a coach, is required; otherwise, a score of 0 will be assigned for the missed quiz or midterm.

 

Final Exam Schedule: August 13, 2014, 12 - 2:30 PM, venue: CIRS 1250
