Campus Employee Furloughs:
For the past 10 years the CSU system has suffered chronic
under-funding. This year, because of the state economic crisis, the
budget cuts are draconian, $584 million, the worst ever in decades. The
CSU administration is attempting to manage these cuts by dramatically
increasing student fees and by furloughing almost all University
employees, including faculty, staff, and administrators. A
furlough means mandatory un-paid days off for employees; there are 18
of these this year for faculty.
The days when I’m forced to cancel class because of the furloughs will
be announced on the class calendar. These days off are not
holidays; they are a very concrete example of how budget cuts have
consequences. If you would like to take action, or simply learn
more, I strongly recommend you contact ASI: http://www.csustan.edu/ASI/

Exams and Quizzes: There will be two midterm exams and a comprehensive final,
all will be in class, closed book. There may be at quizzes most
weeks, quiz dates may or may not be announced in advance. If you know
in
advance that you might miss a quiz or exam, you must discuss
this with me well in advance. No
make-up quizzes or exams will be given unless you have a verifiable
emergency. I do not give early exams
to accommodate
vacation schedules, so please make your holiday travel plans
accordingly. I reserve the right to refuse
make-up
requests.
Homework:
Regular homework is expected and is a regular part of any math course.
Your homework is due each day at the
start of class. Homework must be stapled and should have your
name, the course and section number clearly visible. No late homework
will be accepted.
Academic Honesty: The work you do for this course will be your own,
unless otherwise specified.
You are not to submit other people's
work and represent it as your own. I consider academic
honesty to be at the core of the University's activities in education
and
research. Academic honesty is expected at all times in this course.
Cheating is an attack on the efforts of myself and fellow students
and, above all, on the cheater's integrity. Those caught cheating will
be dealt
with to the full extent allowed under University policy.
