Grading: Homework: 20%
Tests: 40% (20% each)  
Final: 40%

For full credit, full work must always be shown. Any absence on a test day will result in a test grade of 0. It will be possible to make up for a missed test only if documented justification for the absence is provided.
Attendance Policy:  
The official attendance policy of the university states: 
Students are expected to attend classes regularly. A student who incurs an excessive number of absences may be withdrawn from a class at the discretion of the professor (http://bulletin.uga.edu/bulletin/ind/attendance.html)
In this class, we interpret "excessive" to mean TWO or more unexcused absences.

Academic Honesty: As a University of Georgia student, you have agreed to abide by the University’s academic honesty policy, “A Culture of Honesty,” and the Student Honor Code. All academic work must meet the standards described in “A Culture of Honesty” found at: www.uga.edu/honesty. Lack of knowledge of the academic honesty policy is not a reasonable explanation for a violation. Questions related to course assignments and the academic honesty policy should be directed to the instructor.
