Regrading requests, if any, should be done within a week after the announcement/distribution of the graded papers.

will be considered academic dishonesty and will be handled seriously.

If You are Sick
We have been warned that a significant H1N1 flu outbreak is likely, peeking around two or three
weeks into the term. If you do get sick, please do not come to class. All class
notes will be posted online. And
you are more than welcome to come to my and TA’s office hours for any
questions after recovery. I do not take attendance in class, so you do not need
to provide any documentation. You should wait until 24 hours after your fever
has ended before coming back to class. If you still have a cough, please try to
sit away from other students and use proper "cough hygiene". If you
come to class while obviously ill, I may ask you to leave, as a simple courtesy to others.
