Syllabus
Take a moment to check out the syllabus. I also gave you a paper copy!

Summer Assignment Q & A
Q- Have you graded everything???? A- Um, no. But I'm close! You should have gotten several emails from me with grades. You will get an itemized grade sheet with your cumulative summer grades on Thursday. Q-I had a crazy summer and missed one of the assignments! Do I have to change my schedule? A- No. I won't kick you out because you missed one assignment, provided you can get that assignment to me ASAP (as in by Thursday). Understand that I will have to deduct points from your grade.
