There will be a "preliminary exam" and a "midterm exam" followed by a cumulative final exam. The preliminary and midterm exams will have an objective component given during our x-hour and a take-home component due at the beginning of class Friday. The final exam will be entirely take-home and due in my office by noon on Monday, August 26th. Students who want to turn their exam in earlier must make explicit arrangments to do so. The exams are scheduled as follows:
Preliminary Exam | Thursday, July 11 | Kemeny 006 |
Midterm Exam | Thursday, August 1 | Kemeny 006 |
Final Exam | Take Home | Due Monday, August 26 at noon |

The Honor Principle |
---|
Academic integrity is at the core of our mission as mathematicians and educators, and we take it very seriously. We also believe in working and learning together.
Collaboration on homework is permitted and encouraged, but obviously it is a violation of the honor code for someone to provide the answers for you.
On written homework, you are encouraged to work together, and you may get help from others, but you must write up the answers yourself. If you are part of a group of students that produces an answer to a problem, you cannot then copy that group answer. You must write up the answer individually, in your own words.
On exams, you may not give or receive help from anyone. The in class portion of the exams in this course are closed book, and no notes, calculators or other electronic devices are permitted. The take-home portion of the exams in this course are open book and open notes. But no other sources are allowed. In particular accessing the internet to research answers is an Honor Code violation. During take home exams, it is perfectly ok to interact with classmates as long as you do not discuss the exam in any way. Seriously, you shouldn't even comment on length, difficulty, or anything else.
