We encourage you to talk to each other
about homework problems and to try to solve homework problems together, but
you must write up your solutions independently and in your own words. You may
consult other people or sources other than the course text, your class notes,
and the instructor, but you must acknowledge these people and/or sources when
you write up your homework. You are on your honor not to talk to another
student about an exam until both students have turned in their exams.
Students in this course with disabilities, including "invisible" disabilities such as chronic diseases and learning disabilities, and who may need disability-related classroom accommodations, are encouraged to make an appointment to see their instructor as soon as possible. They should also stop by the Academic Skills Center in Collis Center to register for support services. All discussions will remain confidential, although the Academic Skills Center may be consulted to verify the documentation of the disability and advise on an appropriate response to the need.
Some students may
wish to take part in religious observances that occur during this
academic term. If you have a religious observance that conflicts with
your participation in the course, please meet with me before the end of
the second week of the term to discuss appropriate accommodations.
