Projects, information and policy:

The assignment must be turned in at the beginning of the class. Late assignments will not be accepted but you are encouraged to turn in a partially completed project for partial credit.

Academic dishonesty:

Any form of cheating will result in getting a zero from that assignment/exam/project. Cheating more than once will result in getting an F from the course. If you abuse my trust, I will inform the University, but worse yet, I won't be supporting you when you need it. Be honest and work hard. It will pay off.
