Class policies
• If you need to miss a class, please make appropriate arrangements with a classmate for class notes.
• Cheating or any other form of academic dishonesty will result in failure and prosecution according to
University policies.
• Students are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that does not interfere with other students’
learning. Disruptive or distracting behavior is prohibited, and Prof. Greenslet reserves the right to
temporarily or permanently dismiss distracting students from the classroom.
• Students are responsible for all announcements, assignments, etc., made during lectures, including changes
in the scheduling of lecture topics, homework assignments, and exams. Class absence is not a valid excuse
for being unprepared.
• Any changes in the schedule or assignments will be communicated to the class via e-mail using your
Gatorlink (@ufl.edu) e-mail address and the course website. You are responsible for monitoring your
mailbox and the website regularly for any class notices.
Homework policies
• Homework must be turned in through CANVAS by the start of class on the due date. Do NOT slip it under
Prof. Greenslet’s door. In general, late homework will not be accepted.
• Homework must be neat and legible and show all major steps.
• Homework must be on 8.5” x 11” paper. Homework must have the assignment number, your name, and the
date of submission in the upper right-hand corner of the first sheet.
• Homework must have the page number in the bottom right corner of every page.
• Multiple sheets must be placed in the proper order.
• Failure to adhere to the formatting requirements could result in loss of points.
• You may discuss the homework with your classmates; however, all students must provide the solutions
themselves. Copying of homework will be treated as academic dishonesty. Use of a solution manual or any
online answer source is also considered dishonest.
Exam policies
• The first two exams will be held during the regular class period on dates that will be announced later. The
final exam will be held at the time assigned by the Registrar.
• It is the students’ responsibility to demonstrate their knowledge on exams. In order to be able to grade
your work, it must be neat, be legible, and follow logical steps with all work shown. Partial credit may be
given for work that can be followed and where the nature and magnitude of the mistake can be identified.
No credit will be given for correct answers with insufficient indication of how they were obtained.
• Students should be aware that their work is submitted under the honor code pledge taken by UF students.
The pledge is On my honor, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid in doing this assignment.
Students can learn more about the UF honor code at the UF Student Government website.
