Contacting Me:
-
It's best to send me email.
Be sure to write "CS715" in the subject field
so that I know what the message is about. (I delete lots of messages
without reading them, based on the subject fields.)
-
You may also telephone my office and leave a message.
-
Please, never try to communicate with me by leaving notes on my
door, under my door, or in my mailbox in the department office, as
those notes get lost, and I can't retrieve them remotely.
-
If it is absolutely necessary to give me something, please leave it
with the department staff, but do not put it into my mailbox or push
it under my door. In this case, please also send me an email message
stating that the item has been left for me.

-
Written Homework:
-
will be assigned, collected, and graded.
You are permitted to discuss homework.
-
Grading:
-
Your grade will be based on the examinations and on homework.
-
Although the homework will take a substantial amount of time to work,
and will actually be harder than the examinations,
it counts for only a small part of the grade. The reason for this is
that I allow you to work together on homework. If you work the homework
regularly, you should do well on the examinations.
