Otherwise, you’ll need to take Math 120 first.NOTE: If you need to take Math 121, you CANNOT skip Math 120.If your major requires Math 118, you should drop Math 110 and add Math 118 unless you want to take both Math 110 AND Math 120. Math 110 CANNOT substitute for Math 118 for the Gen. Ed. requirement. (Be sure to check with your advisor to make sure this is what you need for your program before you do the drop/add.)Minimum Mathematics Requirement by Program(Instructors: click on table for link to current version)WithdrawalsThe last day of “free drops” (no record on transcript) is Friday, February 4. Withdrawals between Feb. 5 and March 29, will result in a grade of “WS”.

All deadlines are given in the syllabus and in the on-line assignment list.Plan to work well ahead of the deadline, because homework deadlines won’t be extended if they are missed.Homework can be turned in early and can be done outside of the lab.Working at homeYou can do homework from home or on any computer with internet access. Quizzes and tests must be completed in the Math TLC, even if you arrange to take them early. Avoid potential problems with missed homework deadlines due to internet disruptions by starting your work sufficiently early, or by doing your work in the Math TLC.You may work ahead of the class schedule if you choose.Attendance points Attendance will be taken at every class session, and 1 point will be awarded to students who are present when roll is taken. In addition, there will be pop quizzes (15 @ 3 points) given in class at random intervals. These pop quizzes CANNOT be made up if you miss class on the day they are given.Points for each week’s attendance will be posted weekly to the online gradebook by Monday of the following week.Class sessions:During the first part of each class period, LAPTOPS MUST BE CLOSED while the teacher covers that day’s lecture material.At the end of the lecture, laptops may be opened and your teacher and a TA will provide individual help with homework problems.After lecture, you may leave class early if you have your assignment completely finished and 100% correct, after the teacher or TA checks your score on your laptop.Classroom Etiquette:All electronic devices including cell phones, PDA's, iPods, and laptops need to be OFF during class. When the day’s lecture is finished your instructor will ask you to use your laptop to work on the day’s homework. During these times and during tests or quizzes it is not appropriate to use your computer for email communications, instant messaging, general web surfing or similar activities that are not directly related to the current lecture.More on Cell Phones:CELL PHONES MAY NOT BE USED AT ALL, EVEN AS CALCULATORS, IN MATH 110 CLASSROOMS OR IN THE MATH TLC TUTOR LAB. Your cell phone needs to be out of sight and turned off while in the classroom or tutor lab. Any violation of this policy will result in your cell phone being held at the instructor’s desk until you leave the classroom or tutor lab.Make-up PoliciesHomework can be submitted after the posted deadline, but a penalty of 25% will be deducted for each day late. After 4 days, the problems can still be worked and submitted, but no course points will be earned.  All homework assignments are posted on line and are available at any time before the given deadline, so plan ahead if you will need to miss class for any reason.Students who must miss work or tests due to official University business must make arrangements for makeup work beforehand,
