MIDTERM EXAM SCHEDULE Thursday, March 13, 2008, 7:30-9:10 am at ENGC 110 FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE Saturday, May 10, 2008, 8:00-10:30 am at ENGC 110 LATE WORK No late work will be accepted. (Every homework assignment should be turned in before Tuesday class.) Excused late work with prior approval will be accepted for partial credit. POLICY ON ASSIGNMENT

All students should do their assignments for themselves. Even partial copy of your colleagues is not allowed. It will be considered to be a cheating or plagiarism, resulting in zero point grade on that assignment with -20 penalty points. COURSE OUTLINE / COURSE SCHEDULE

DISABILITY STATEMENT (See pages 2 & 11 of Student Handbook): ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT STATEMENT (See page 23, section 100 of Student Handbook): You are expected to practice academic honesty in every aspect of this course and all other courses. Make sure you are familiar with your Student Handbook, especially the section on academic misconduct. Students who engage in academic misconduct are subject to university disciplinary procedures. FORMS OF ACADEMIC DISHONESTY 1) Cheating: deception in which a student misrepresents that he/she has mastered information on an academic exercise that he/she has not mastered; giving or receiving aid unauthorized by the instructor on assignments or examinations. 2) Academic misconduct: tampering with grades or taking part in obtaining or distributing any part of a scheduled test. 3) Fabrication: use of invented information or falsified research. 4) Plagiarism: unacknowledged quotation and/or paraphrase of someone else's words, ideas, or data as one's own in work submitted for credit. Failure to identify information or essays from the Internet and submitting them as one's own work also constitutes plagiarism. 5) Please be aware that the University subscribes to the Turnitin plagiarism detection service. Your paper may be submitted to this service at the discretion of the instructor.
