Conflicts
If you have a conflict with another exam or other university-sponsored event:
- First try to reschedule the other event. Exams take precedence over almost everything else.
- For other exams, refer to the official schedule. If the other exam is not scheduled by the registrar, the other instructor is obligated to give you the makeup exam.
- If you have exhausted other means for rescheduling your conflict, contact the Course Administrator at least two weeks before the exam. You must explain the nature of the conflict and provide documentation.
- If you miss an exam because of illness, you must provide documentation.
By University policy, courses are not obligated to provide makeup exams for students taking concurrent courses, and we will not do so in this course. The Courses of Study states: "Students are expected to be present throughout each semester at all meetings of courses for which they are registered." The term "meetings" includes exams, even when scheduled in the evening.
Retrieving Exams
We distribute prelims in TBA usually the day after the prelim. Bring your student ID card. Final exams may be reviewed the following semester but may not be taken from the room.

Quizzes
There may be occasional in-class quizzes. Quizzes are graded in a binary fashion:
- 0: you either made no attempt or missed the quiz.
- 1: you made an attempt at solving the problems.
Quizzes will count for a small percentage of your final grade. Any unused quiz "weight" will be shifted to the exams.
