• The final raw score will be computed with the following weights: 10% problem sets, 25% quizes, 25% midterm, and 40% final. The lowest homework grade will be dropped. The lowest quiz grade will be dropped.
• The grading scale will be set at the end of the quarter. But, it will be no tougher than 4.0=95% and 2.0=70%, with a linear distribution between those two points.
• You may work collectively on the homework. You may also look to other sources for solutions. However, you must cite any outside source you have used in finding your solution. And, you must write up your solution in your own words.
• Homework is due by the end of class in class on the day it's due. No late homework will be accepted.
• I suggest you make a serious attempt at each problem before consulting a peer or another text.
• A grade of 'F' will be assigned to any student who misses the final. Incompletes are reserved for those who have completed all of the work for the class, including the midterm, but who, for a legitimate, documented reason, miss the final.

• I encourage everyone to use the free discussion board piazza.com for discussion of the class. Go to the website and enroll in MATH 308F-G. This is a site that allows everyone to ask and answer questions. It is my hope that you will help each other out on the site. If there are questions about policies, exams, etc, please post them on piazza as well. I will answer them there so that the answers will be public and useful to other students.
• However, please look at previous questions and this syllabus before posting a new question.
• You may post anonymously, for reference.
• You may give us anonymous feedback by posting a private note on piazza.

• There will be no overloading during the first week.
• If you wish to request an accommodation due to a disability, please contact the Disability Services Office at 011 Mary Gates Hall.
• Come to office hours!
