A publishable quality term paper automatically gets you an A in the course.
There is no late policy. Your project/term paper is due before class on the due date. The due date may be extended only under exceptional circumstances.
Exams must be taken individually.
All parties involved in cheating will be prosecuted no matter who copied from whom.
Please be aware of the departmental cheating policy.
Please disclose all the help that you receive for your term paper, including use of Internet tools.
A student can work on any topic of his/her choice but it must be approved by the instructor. Some suggestions:
Read Prof. H.J. Siegel's Guide to Technical Writing before writing your term paper.
Each student has to prepare a 15 minute presentation to the class describing his/her work. This includes time for questioning.
