Exam and Homework Policy

Valuables (especially your laptop!): Please do not bring your laptop or any other valuable items to the exam. You are required to leave your bags and books at the front of the exam room.

Time and place: It is your responsibility to consult the web site to know when and where an exam is being held. You will not receive any special consideration for being late or missing an exam by mistake.

Identification: You are required to bring your Polytechnic ID to the exam. If for any reason you are unable to do so, another photo ID, such as a drivers license, is acceptable.

Before the Exam: You must wait outside the exam room before the start of an exam. You must sit only in seats where there is an exam for your course. You must not move the exam to a different seat.

Calculators and formula sheets: You are required to have a graphing calculator comparable to the TI-82. We reserve the right to ban calculators, such as the TI-92, that we deem to be too powerful. You can not use any other calculator on the exams. No sheet of formulas is allowed, but we will provide all needed formulas on the exam itself.

During an exam you are not allowed to borrow or lend a calculator; borrowing or lending a calculator will be considered cheating.

Missed exams: If you missed an exam due to a medical reason, then University policy requires you to provide written documentation to the Office of Student Development (JB158). It is University policy that the Mathematics Department may not give make-up exams without prior authorization by the Office of Student Development.

Homework submission: No late homework will be accepted.

Neatness and legibility: You are expected to write as neatly and legibly on your exam. Your final answer must be clearly identified (by placing a box around it). Points will be deducted, if the grader has difficulty reading or finding your answer.

Academic integrity: Any incident of cheating or dishonesty will be dealt with swiftly and severely. The University does not tolerate cheating. (There is no such thing as "a little bit of cheating")
