CSE 341, Winter 2004: Adminstrative policies

As stated on the first day of class, you are responsible for knowing and following all the policies on this web page.

Mailing list

You must subscribe to the mailing list and check email at least once a day. Therefore, you are responsible for receiving communications posted on the class email list within a day of the time it is posted.

Homeworks

There will probably be homework every week, and you will generally have a week to complete each homework or project part.

Collaboration

All homework should be done individually unless otherwise noted on the homework writeup. You may speak with other students about the homework, but you must be able to reconstruct your homework from your own head.

If you do not actually perform the homework, you will not learn the material. Ergo you will be wasting your time, your instructors' time, your tuition money, and the state's resources. That's a bad thing to do. See below under "exams and quizzes" for another reason to abide by this rule.

Late policy

You have 4 late days to use for all homeworks throughout the quarter. Full credit will be given for homework submitted within your late day allowance.
A late day equals up to 24 calendar hours. Therefore, each a weekend day counts as a full late day.
You may not use more than two late days on one homework or project. As a special exception, a homework due on Friday may be turned in by 9:30 a.m. (typically the start of class) the following Monday morning; this will count as 3 late days. If there is no class on Monday, you must ask the relevant TA for the best means to get your homework to him/her. It is your responsibility to accommodate your TA in such cases, not vice versa.
Homeworks with printed source or written portions must be handed in at the beginning of class. Electronic submissions must be received before class as well. Homework submitted after the start of class is at least one day late. Therefore, do not skip class in order to complete homework.
No extra late days will be granted. Therefore, save your late days for when you really need them. Late homework will be discouraged.

Exams and quizzes

There will be a midterm and a final. The final will be comprehensive. Do not schedule trips or absences during the scheduled final exam or midterm week (probably week 5). No makeup exams will be given.

We reserve the right to have a pop quiz on any class day. Anything covered in class, assigned as reading, or performed as part of an assigned homework is fair game.
