Office Phone

425-4575 Leave a message on the answering machine and I will try to reach you at least two times before giving up. To be totally honest, I often forget to check the answering machine and I don't check my email as often as I should, so dropping by my office is a better way to guarantee that you get to talk to me.

Prerequisites

If you do not have one of the following prerequisites see your instructor: (1) Math 151 with a grade of C or better; or, (2) Transfer credit in first semester Calculus (with trigonometric functions) with a grade of C or better.

Syllabus

Homework

It is important to do the homework on time every time in this course. Working with other members of the class should be very helpful, but be careful that you learn the material since you won't have any help on the exams. The web homework will have strict due dates, and it is your responsibility to check these dates on the web site www.coursecompass.com. In order to login to this site you will need to purchase a license. A license can be purchased with the textbook or can be purchased separately. Some of our homework will be assigned homework problems from the textbook and you should expect to see similar problems on the exams.

Calculators

Your instructor will not allow you to use a calculator on exams. The exam problems will usually not require heavy duty arithmetic. Numbers like the square root of 15 or the sine function evaluated at 5 should not be approximated by a decimal number in this class since the decimal approximation is not sufficiently accurate. (An infinite series representation of these numbers would be correct and possibly acceptable.)

Disabilities

Attention: If you are a student with a disability (e.g. physical, learning, psychiatric, vision, hearing, etc.) and think that you might need special assistance or a special accommodation in this class or any other class, call the Office for Students with Disabilities at 425-4006 or come by the office - 110 Frist Hall.

Attendance

"You are expected to be here for every class. Coming late and leaving early should be rare occurrences since it is impolite and distracting to the entire class. However, it is better to be tardy than not to come at all. If you are tardy, please enter as quietly as possible and sit near the entrance. If you have to leave early for any reason, please let me know ahead of time and sit near the exit."

Your instructor has had to turn in a number of students to the honor court for cheating. This is usually devastating to the student. The honor code can be read at academics.pdf .
