Homework and quiz policy

On most days in which a homework assignment is due, you will have a quiz on the corresponding material in your discussion section.

Late homework will not be accepted, and no make-up quizzes will be given for any reason (not even an extremely good one!) To compensate for any unavoidable absences, each student's lowest two homework scores and lowest two quiz scores will not be counted in his or her grade.
