Office Hours

I have an open door policy. Walk in my office every time you want and I will interrupt whatever I am doing. In case you feel better having an appointment, arrange for one.  Two important rules to talk to me:

        1. Make sure you thought about the problem and have some analysis to offer together with your question
        
2. Make sure you can explain you problem or make the question in one-two sentences.

Grading System

Some Rules

  1. Late homework or reports lose their value exponentially. The time constant is 0.25/day. 
  2. No makeup exams.
  3. Class attendance is required. Absences not justified carry a 10% penalty in the associated homework.
  4. Other rules may be added.
  5. Academic misconduct WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AND WILL BE REPORTED

Students with Disabilities

Any student in this course who has a disability that may prevent him or her from fully demonstrating his or her abilities should contact the instructor personally as soon as possible so  accommodations necessary to ensure full participation and facilitate his/her educational opportunities are discussed.
