university policies, and the result may be flunking the class as well as a letter being
sent to university authorities for further action. UCSC policy
Integrity of student work. Each student is expected to
complete his or her own original work for this course and to turn it in by the due date.
Students may talk to one another about general approaches to various exercises, and
receive general assistance from the instructor, TA, tutors, and lab assistants. However,
the details of the assignment are to be completed independently, thereby reflecting the
individual accomplishments of the student.
Attendance. Lab attendance is mandatory.
Even if the lab assignment is easy or if you do it outside of lab, you are still expected
to attend lab and use your time there productively.
Subject to change. All students are responsible for
monitoring the class web page for class policies, assignments, changes, records, etc.
Exceptions. Teaching assistants and tutors do not have the
authority to modify class policies or to grant exceptions.
Help
If you have trouble checking into a lab, it may be that you are not
on the class list, or you are enrolled in a different section.
Students who register about two weeks before classes start may not
yet be in our class list (Yes, I know you registered, but the information from the
registrar's office is not sent to us everyday...). Your lab supervisor should be able to
see if your name is in our list.
If you are enrolled and your name is not in our list, your lab
supervisor can add you to our list. Please understand that registering for the class can
only be done by through the registrar's office.
