All homework and projects must be neatly done. No late assignments will be accepted. Make-up exams require permission in advance with a Doctor's excuse in the case of illness. You may work together on homework and projects but you must do the work cooperatively. For some of the assignments, you will be required to work in groups.
You may sign a contract for a Footnote 18 project on the first day of class as part of the Honors Curriculum.
If you wish to request an accommodation for a disability,

This syllabus may be updated as necessary throughout
the semester. For changes, see my website.
