Homework Homework will not count directly toward your grade but it will be discussed in class and your instructor will be pleased to check, correct and discuss any (tidy and legible) logic exercises you care to submit. Please try to read the material and do the exercises listed for a given day prior to the class meeting at which they will be discussed.
Course Conduct You are responsible for saving all quizzes and your midterm test. You are expected to attend class regularly. Acts of academic dishonesty are taken seriously and dealt with harshly, following the University's academic integrity procedures. If you are caught cheating you get an automatic F for the course—no negotiation, no exceptions.
 
 

*  Exceptions: By USD policy, students involved in out of town university athletic or religious events on quiz dates with appropriate documentation may make special arrangements.
