Attendance:
Students are responsible for their own attendance. The topics covered
in lecture will be listed on the course website. Lab attendance is not 
required but is strongly encouraged.

Academic Integrity Policy: 
Homeworks and labs may be worked on and discussed in groups. If the 
assignment is a group assignment, the group can turn in one assignment
for the entire group. If the assignment is an individual assignment, 
each student must turn in their own code; no direct copying is allowed. 
Refer to the Academic Integrity policy printed in the campus catalog 
and class schedule.

Computer Lab:
The computer lab in Sci 409 is available for use by students in this 
course outside of class time on a first come, first serve basis. Computer 
Science department tutors will be available to assist with assignments 
in 409. Refer to the tutoring schedule posted on the door for times.

Grading:	Labs/Homework	30%
		Midterms (2)	40% (20% for each Midterm)
		Final		30%

Labs:
Lab assignments will be posted on the course website. Labs are worth 10 
points and usually involve writing a short program. The labs are due at 
5pm on the day of the lab. Partial credit will be given for incomplete 
labs. Late labs will not be accepted. The lowest lab grade will not be 
counted towards the overall lab grade.

Homework:
Homework assignments and due dates will be posted on the course website. 
Homeworks are worth 20 points. Programs which do not compile may be given 
partial credit depending on the severity of the error. Late homework will 
be marked down 10% for every weekday it is late. Weekends (Sat. and Sun.) 
count as only one day late. Assignments more than three days late will 
not be accepted.

Labs/Homework Submission:
Assignments are submitted by emailing the instructor all assignment code
files from the Computer Science department server. Do not use RunnerMail 
or any other email method. If you believe you submitted the assignment on 
time but the instructor has not received the email, contact the instructor.

Midterms: 
Midterm 1 will be Monday January 29, 2007. 
Midterm 2 will be Monday February 26, 2007. 
Makeup midterms will not be given, but the other midterm will be counted 
proportionally higher if you have a valid reason for missing a midterm. 

Final:
