Late Work: In fairness to everyone
in the class, late work is not acceptable. All assignments must
be completed during the assigned times. If a conflict exists and
there is an acceptable justification for it, you are responsible
to contact me about making up the work. Late assignments/works automatically
lose one (1) letter grade. Make ups need to be completed within
one week of the missed deadline.
Extra Credit: If it is your desire
to do more than I require for the course, I will accept assignments
for extra credit. You must request an extra credit assignment by
e-mail. Each extra assignment will be worth five points. You may
obtain a maximum of ten extra credit points. All extra credit assignments
are due by weekend ten. Note: five points = 5%, and ten points =
10%.
Academic Honesty: You are expected
to do your own work on all assignments. By being a student at Breyer
State University, you pledge that you will neither knowingly give
or receive any inappropriate assistance in academic work, thus affirming
your personal commitment to honor and integrity.
