Attendance Policy
For the dates when a class meeting is scheduled, I must take attendance. However, it is
up to you as to whether or not you show up. However, since your grade in the class is
based on your homework and exam scores and since the exams are based on material
from the class lectures, it would be in your best interest to attend regularly. If you do
decide that you don’t want to attend the lectures but do intend to remain in the class,
please notify me of this decision so I don’t drop you from the class.
