Grading: 495 points total
    2 quizzes (40 points), 2 exams (200 points), 1 comprehensive final exam (150 points), 3 computer projects (105 points)
    Late projects are accepted at a cost of 1 point per working day past the due date.
    Students missing an exam or the final without notifying the instructor in advance will receive a zero.
    Students needing to miss an exam for business reasons will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, but typically will end up taking the original exam upon returning.
    At the instructor's option, make-up exams will be available for non-business related reasons, but will be harder. These make-ups will be given on the scheduled make-up time, which is Friday, May 7th, at 1600 hours.
    No make-up quizzes will be given.
Grade Scale: 90/80/70 % = A/B/C etc. (initially). Final break points will be curved.
Cheating: Don't do it! Quizzes and exams should be your own work.  The projects should be your own or your team's work.  Expect to get an 'F' for the course if you are caught cheating on a quiz, exam, or project.
