Grading
Scale:
Grades are calculated
according to the following scale: 91-100 percent = A; 81-90 = B; 71-80 = C;

Notes on
Grading:
*) All assignments are due
on the date listed. Extensions and make-up exams will be given only with proof
of a medical emergency. Exceptions for personal emergencies will not be granted
on a case-by-case basis.
*) You are expected to attend class
regularly. Exams will cover material presented in lectures, films and readings.
Some materials will not be discussed in class; some lectures will not be
covered in reading assignments. Students who miss class are responsible for
obtaining the material.
*) The University's policies
regarding cheating, plagiarism, fabrication, and academic dishonesty will be
strictly observed. This includes providing accurate and complete documentation
of any materials consulted in the course of completing written work. If you are
unsure of these policies, they are printed in the Code of
Academic Integrity in the Undergraduate Catalogue. The Code is also
excerpted in the Schedule of Classes.
*) Evaluation of all written work
will be based on substance, evidence, and writing ability. Unless specifically
instructed otherwise, all materials quoted or consulted must be
cited with full publication references; failure to cite materials may be deemed
plagiarism. In addition, grammar, spelling and style will be considered in
calculating the grade.
