Assignments

Rules

  • All assignments should be your individual work; otherwise, points will be deducted. [Students who wish to work together on homework must request my permission to do so in advance.]
  • Because answer keys are made available after homework is turned in, late homeworks will not be accepted. In a valid emergency, your recitation instructor may make an exception.
  • Your homework should be neat and well-organized. Show your work and circle your answers. Your recitation instructor is a student like you and will not take time to decipher poor handwriting, put pages in order, or read notes scrawled in margins.
  • Be sure to write or print your name at the top of the first page of your homework. Put your name or initials at the top of each additional sheet of paper or computer output. Staple your pages together.
  • Answer keys are placed on file in the Math-Stat Library (4th floor Thackeray) on Monday mornings after assignments are handed in. They are on two-hour reserve so that you can take them out to be copied.
