ABSENTEE
POLICY
To be successful in Fundamental
Chemistry, it is essential that you attend classes regularly. This class is
designed with a lot of cooperative work and if you are not in class, you are
letting your classmates down.
CHEATING
POLICY
Cheating
will not be tolerated. Anyone found
cheating will receive an automatic "F" for the particular assignment,
lab, or exam. A second offense will result in dismissal from the course with a
final course grade of "F."
EXAMS (50%)
Exams will
be given at the end a combination of two or three chapters in the text. Each exam will be worth 100 points. Only in
very rare, extreme cases will make-up exams be given. Exams will comprise 50%
of the grade. The lowest exam score will be dropped.
HOMEWORK (15%)
Homework
assignments will be given over each chapter covered. Some assignments will be done in groups. All homework will be added together and will
count 15% of the grade. Late homework
will only be accepted if it is turned in within 5 class periods. Homework
turned in late will receive a maximum of
50%. Two late assignments will be forgiven with no penalty.
LABS/Journals/Presentation(25%)
All safety procedures
must be followed in lab. Any person
wearing clothing that comes above the knee will not be allowed in lab. Sleeveless clothing is also not
permitted. Open-toed shoes are not
permitted in lab. If this is a burden, a lab coat may be borrowed. Chemical
splash goggles will be provided and will be worn at all times. We will be in the lab on most days, so it is
important that you dress accordingly.
PRESENTATIONS (Part of the Lab Grade)

be determined from the following percentage scale.
