Add/drop deadlines can be found on the current academic calendar web page located at http://www.sjsu.edu/academic_programs/calendars/academic_calendar/. The Late Drop Policy is available at http://www.sjsu.edu/aars/policies/latedrops/policy/. Students should be aware of the current deadlines and penalties for dropping classes. Information about the latest changes and news is available at the Advising Hub at http://www.sjsu.edu/advising/. Grading Policy This is a Credit/No-Credit course. The first EE101 Exam (challenge exam) will be given on Thursday, 2/3/11, at 14:00-16:00. The second EE101 Exam (final exam) will be given on Saturday, 5/21/11, at 13:00-15:00 University Policies Academic integrity Your commitment as a student to learning is evidenced by your enrollment at San Jose State University. The University’s Academic Integrity policy, located at http://www.sjsu.edu/senate/S07-2.htm, requires you to be honest in all your academic course work. Faculty members are required to report all infractions to the office of Student Conduct and Ethical Development. The Student Conduct and Ethical Development website is available at http://www.sa.sjsu.edu/judicial_affairs/index.html. Instances of academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Cheating on exams or plagiarism (presenting the work of another as your own, or the use of another person’s ideas without giving proper credit) will result in a failing grade and sanctions by the University. For this class, all assignments are to be completed by the individual student unless otherwise specified. If you would like to include your assignment or any material you have submitted, or plan to submit for another class, please note that SJSU’s Academic Policy S07-2 requires approval of instructors. Campus Policy in Compliance with the American Disabilities Act If you need course adaptations or accommodations because of a disability, or if you need to make special arrangements in case the building must be evacuated, please make an appointment with me as soon as possible, or see me during office hours. Presidential Directive 97-03 requires that students with disabilities requesting accommodations must register with the Disability Resource Center (DRC) at http://www.drc.sjsu.edu/ to establish a record of their disability. out/staff/.EE101, Spring Semester, 2011 Page 4 of 4 EE Department Honor Code The Electrical Engineering Department will enforce the following Honor Code that must be read and accepted by all students. “I have read the Honor Code and agree with its provisions. My continued enrollment in this course constitutes full acceptance of this code. I will NOT: • Take an exam in place of someone else, or have someone take an exam in my place • Give information or receive information from another person during an exam • Use more reference material during an exam than is allowed by the instructor • Obtain a copy of an exam prior to the time it is given • Alter an exam after it has been graded and then return it to the instructor for re-grading • Leave the exam room without returning the exam to the instructor.” Measures Dealing with Occurrences of Cheating • Department policy mandates that the student or students involved in cheating will receive an “F” on that evaluation instrument (paper, exam, project, homework, etc.) and will be reported to the Department and the University. • A student’s second offense in any course will result in a Department recommendation of suspension from the
