Grading
This class is a pass/fail course.
In order to pass the course each student must attend at least 9 lectures and complete at least
8 of the labs.
After each lab exercise you will be required to
answer some questions about the lab using BYU's
online system called Blackboard. This will be
how we track your lab participation. You will
also be required to indicate on Blackboard whether
you attended the lecture for a given week. We
will rely on your honesty in filling this out (see
Honor Code below). Click here to be linked to
Blackboard.
Honor Code
I expect you to live the
honor code.
Cheating of any kind will result in a failing grade in the course.
Preventing Sexual Harassment
Title IX of the Educational Amendment of 1972
prohibits sex discrimination against any
participants in an educational program or activity
that receives federal funds. The act is intended to
eliminate sex discrimination in education. Title IX
covers discrimination in programs, admissions,
activities, and student-to-student sexual
harassment. BYU's policy against sexual harassment
extends not only to employees of the university but
to students as well. If you encounter unlawful
sexual harassment or gender based discrimination,
please talk to your professor; contact the Equal
Employment Office at 378-5895 or 367-5689 (24-hour);
or contact the Honor Code Office at 378-2847.
Students with Disabilities

providing a working and learning atmosphere which
reasonably accommodates qualified persons with
disabilities. If you have any disability which may

successfully, please contact the Services for
Students with Disabilities Office (378-2767).
Reasonable academic accommodations are reviewed for

unlawfully discriminated against on the basis of
disability, you may seek resolution through
