Grading policy: Homework (50%), midterm (20%), final (30%)
2
Exams: We will have one in-class midterm exam (tentative date: 10/8), and a take-home final project. You are allowed to bring a double-sized, letter-sized formula sheet and a calculator (NO computers or cell phones or devices with internet access). Statistical Tables will be provided. Makeup midterm exams might be given only in the case of verified medical or other documented emergencies. There will be NO makeup finals!
Homework: There will be 5-7 homework assignments. Students are encouraged to work together on homework, but each individual student is required to submit their own work. Assignments will be collected at the beginning of class on the due dates. Late assignments are accepted only on a documented emergency basis.
Statistical Computing: SAS
Incompletes: You will only be given a grade of Incomplete if all of the following statements apply to you: a) The circumstances which make it impossible for you to complete the course before the end of the semester are beyond your control and occurred within the last two weeks of the semester. b) You have been in attendance through most of the course. c) You have a passing grade on the work completed. d) You have written documentation (a doctor's excuse, for example) of your need for an Incomplete.
ACADEMIC HONESTY: All academic work must meet the standards contained in the Academic Integrity Policy manual. Students are responsible for informing themselves about those standards before performing any academic work. The link to more detailed information about academic honesty is at
