They might be collected and graded. In &amp;nbsp;that case, the grade will count as a quiz. &amp;nbsp;Your final score for the course will be computed as follows:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Computer Labs: 15% of the course grade.
&lt;center&gt;[&lt;a href="http://www.math.sc.edu/calclab/141L-F09/"&gt;http://www.math.sc.edu/calclab/141L-S10/&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Quizzes: 15% of the course grade. &lt;b&gt;Only the 10 best scores are counted.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;center&gt;
A ten-minute quiz will be given during the problem session.  There will be no make-up quizzes, since only the best 10 grades count towards the course grade.&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Midterms: each test counts 15%, for a total of 45% of the course grade.&lt;center&gt;
There will be three in-class midterm exams scheduled as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;Test #&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;Date&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;1&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;Monday Feb 08
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;2&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;Friday &amp;nbsp;Mar 05&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;3&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;Wednesday Apr 07&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
No make-up tests will be given.  Only medical, death in the family, religious or official USC business reasons are valid excuses for missing a test and must be verified by letter from a doctor, guardian or supervisor to the instructor.&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Final exam: 25% of the course grade.&lt;center&gt;
The final exam is scheduled on Tuesday, May 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
The course grade will be determined as follows:&lt;center&gt;&lt;table&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;GRADE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;RANGE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;A&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;90%-100%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;B+&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;85%-89%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;B&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;80%-84%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;C+&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;75%-79%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;C&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;70%-74%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;D+&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;65%-69%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;D&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;60%-64%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;F&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;below 60%&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/center&gt;
&lt;b&gt;ATTENDANCE POLICY&lt;/b&gt;:  Attendance is mandatory.  Penalties to your final grade apply as follows:&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students missing four sessions without a valid excuse will have their final grade lowered by half a letter grade (e.g. from C to D+).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students missing six sessions without a valid excuse will have their final grade lowered by a full letter grade (e.g. from B to C)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students missing eight sessions without a valid excuse will have their final grade lowered by a letter-and-a-half (e.g. from A to C+)&lt;/li&gt;

They might be collected and graded. In &amp;nbsp;that case, the grade will count as a quiz (see below). &amp;nbsp;Your final score for the course will be computed as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Computer Labs: 15% of the course grade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
[&lt;a href="http://www.math.sc.edu/calclab/141L-F09/"&gt;http://www.math.sc.edu/calclab/141L-F09/&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Quizzes: 15% of the course grade. &lt;b&gt;Only the 10 best scores are counted.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
A ten-minute quiz will be given during the problem session.  There will be no make-up quizzes, since only the best 10 grades count towards the course grade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Midterms: each test counts 15%, for a total of 45% of the course grade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
There will be three in-class midterm exams scheduled as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;Test #&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;Date&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;1&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;Fri Sep 18
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;2&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;Mon Oct 19
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;3&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;Wed Nov 18
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/center&gt;No make-up tests will be given.  Only medical, death in the family, religious or official USC business reasons are valid excuses for missing a test and must be verified by letter from a doctor, guardian or supervisor to the instructor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Final exam: 25% of the course grade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
The final exam is scheduled on Wednesday, December 10, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 noon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
The course grade will be determined as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;GRADE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#bb9999"&gt;RANGE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;A&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;90%-100%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;B+&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;85%-89%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;B&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;80%-84%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;C+&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;75%-79%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;C&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;70%-74%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;D+&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;65%-69%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;D&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;60%-64%&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;F&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td algin="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;below 60%&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/center&gt;
&lt;b&gt;ATTENDANCE POLICY&lt;/b&gt;:  Attendance is mandatory.  Penalties to your final grade apply as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students missing four sessions without a valid excuse will have their final grade lowered by half a letter grade (e.g. from C to D+).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students missing six sessions without a valid excuse will have their final grade lowered by a full letter grade (e.g. from B to C)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students missing eight sessions without a valid excuse will have their final grade lowered by a letter-and-a-half (e.g. from A to C+)&lt;/li&gt;

The center also maintains a list of private tutors for math and statistics.  The center is located in LeConte, room 105, and the schedule is available at the Department of Mathematics website (&lt;a href="www.math.sc.edu"&gt;www.math.sc.edu&lt;/a&gt;).  No appointment is necessary.&lt;li&gt;The &lt;b&gt;Student Success Center&lt;/b&gt; and one of four &lt;b&gt;Academic Centers for Excellence (ACE)&lt;/b&gt; are on the mezzanine level of the Thomas Cooper Library and can be reached by phone at 777-0684 or by going online at &lt;a href="www.sc.edu/academicsuccess"&gt;www.sc.edu/academicsuccess&lt;/a&gt;  Other ACE locations around campus make access to these resources easy (Sims Hall, Bates House, Columbia Hall).  The centers are at the crossroads of services and information about many special resources for stucents, including advice on developing successful study habits, time management, and effective learning strategies as well as availability of tutoring.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The Supplemental Instructor for this course is Maddie Miller.
