Missed Exams:
If you know that you are going to miss an exam or cannot take the final exam at the scheduled time, please notify me at least two weeks in advance. If you miss a midterm exam for any acceptable reason (e.g. religious obligation, documented illness), you will be given an average score based on your performance in the other midterm. If you miss all midterm exams for acceptable reasons, your course grade will be based entirely on your final exam score. If you miss the final exam and have not rescheduled it in advance, you will score zero on the final.

Religious Obligations:

Campus policy regarding religious observances requires that faculty make every effort to reasonably and fairly deal with all students who, because of religious obligations, have conflicts with scheduled exams, assignments or required attendance. In this class, you should notify me of any conflict at least two weeks in advance. See full details at http://www.colorado.edu/policies/fac_relig.html.

Student Classroom and Course-Related Behavior:
Students and faculty each have responsibility for maintaining an appropriate learning environment. Students who fail to adhere to such behavioral standards may be subject to discipline. Faculty have the professional responsibility to treat all students with understanding, dignity and respect, to guide classroom discussion and to set reasonable limits on the manner in which they and their students express opinions. Professional courtesy and sensitivity are especially important with respect to individuals and topics dealing with differences of race, culture, religion, politics, sexual orientation, gender variance, and nationalities. Class rosters are provided to the instructor with the student's legal name. Your instructor will gladly honor your request to address you by an alternate name or gender pronoun. Please advise your instructor of this preference early in the semester so that appropriate changes may be made to the records. See polices at http://www.colorado.edu/policies/classbehavior.html and at http://www.colorado.edu/studentaffairs/judicialaffairs/code.html#student_code

Honor Code:
All students of the University of Colorado at Boulder are responsible for knowing and adhering to the academic integrity policy of this institution. Violations of this policy may include: cheating, plagiarism, aid of academic dishonesty, fabrication, lying, bribery, and threatening behavior. All incidents of academic misconduct shall be reported to the Honor Code Council (honor@colorado.edu; 303-725-2273). Students who are found to be in violation of the academic integrity policy will be subject to both academic sanctions from the faculty member and non-academic sanctions (including but not limited to university probation, suspension, or expulsion). Other information on the Honor Code can be found at http://www.colorado.edu/policies/honor.html and at http://www.colorado.edu/academics/honorcode/
