| Grading | Scale |
Assignments: 30% Attendance/Participation: You are expected to attend and participate appropriately in class. I will lower your final grade by one full letter for every three class absences. The reason for this policy is that class participation is essential. Since you cannot participate in class if you are tardy, sleeping in class, talking with others, or surfing the web, I will also count such behavior as an absence. |

ADDRESSING I prefer that students address me as Dr. Anderson-Freed or Dr.

name.
