MAKE-UPS; Daily assignments, quizzes,
and extra credit assignments
cannot be made up but I will drop your
12 lowest points. Reports may be
turned in late but I will deduct 5 points
for each week or fraction of a
week that the report is late.
Exams cannot be made up if for any reason
you are not in class but I will drop
your lowest exam grade excluding the
final exam.
EARLY WORK: You may submit reports but
not daily assignments or quizzes in
advance for days when you expect to
be absent from class but I will drop
your 12 lowest points. Exams cannot
be taken early if you know in advance
that you will be unable to attend class
on a day when an exam is scheduled
but I will drop your lowest exam grade
excluding the final exam.
WRITING: Unlike most math courses,
this course counts as both a math
course and a writing course. Writing
assignments should be written as if
you were writing them for an English
teacher. A guide to the writing
assignments will be handed out during
the third week of class after you
have learned enough statistics to be
able to write about it.
LEARNING LAB: If you wish to meet
with a student tutor, go to the Math
Leaning Lab B2-36 to make an appointment.
You may receive up to 1 extra
credit point per week for your tutoring
sessions in the Learning Lab if
you bring back a statement signed by
the tutor.
If several students are able to meet
at the same time and if no Math 016
tutor is available at that time see
Gail Chaskes in the Math Learning Lab
B2-36 about forming a study group.
ATTENDANCE AND PROMPTNESS: Attendance
will be taken daily as required
by the college. Three latenesses
count as one absence. If you are
absent more than once through October
1 or more than twice through
November 12, I will report to the college
that your attendance is
unsatisfactory. If you are absent
more than twice through November 19
you should discuss your situation with
me. Otherwise you may be dropped
from the course.
If you are on financial aid and must
miss class more than once
through October 1 or more than twice
through November 12 you should
discuss your situation with me.
Otherwise your financial aid may be
discontinued.
INCLEMENT WEATHER: In the event
of inclement weather there are several
ways of determining whether CCP is open.
You may listen for CCP's
school closing number 238 on KYW radio
at 1060 on the AM dial or check
KYW's school closing web page at http://www2.kyw1060.com/schools/
or
for 95 cents a call you may call KYW's
school closing phone number at
1-900-737-1060. Usually if SEPTA
is running close to normal then CCP
will remain open.
GIFTS: To avoid any apperance of
impropriety no gifts of any kind will
be accepted.
