Announcements
August 30, 2008 The 2007 Final Grade Distribution
has been posted.
September 12, 2008 To be
crystal clear about the policy regarding the penalties for submitting
late
assignments, it is the following: "If a hard copy of the assignment is
not in the stack collected in
class, it is considered late. Submissions
via email are counted as
late, and this includes assignments emailed on the due date. For each
24-hour period that passes after the initial deadline (9:30am of the
due date), an additional day will be added when calculating the penalty
for late submission. For example, if an
assignment is due on Thursday
in class, an assignment emailed to the GSI at 11:00am on Friday will
count as two days late."
