Honesty Policy: You must follow the academic honesty policy for HCC. I take these matters very seriously.

If you are caught cheating - you will get a “0” on that test or project, if you are caught a second time you will receive an “F” for the class and be turned over to the Dean for further handling.

You have been warned!

If you are caught taking or trying to take a test or quiz outside of the classroom you will receive a grade of "0" and you will not be able to drop that as a low grade !!! A second time and you will receive an “F” for the class.

Incomplete:

I will follow the HCC Incomplete policy as stated on page 44 of the2000-2001 catalog.

Attendance: Class starts at 7 PM - students are expected to be in class on time, lectures and tests will start at 7 PM . As part of the participation grade students will have 3 “pop” quizzes during the semester. Attendance will be taken in every class at 5 minutes after the start of class, after 4 absents and/or lateness, the student will lose 2 points off the final grade for each occurrence. Any exceptions to the above attendance policy must be cleared in advance with the Instructor. All exceptions are at the discretion of the Instructor.

All computers in the classroom, and in the Open Computer Lab, are connected to the Internet.
