Here is the team membership roster.
If you drop the class, or learn that a team member has dropped the class, let us know so we can adjust the roster.
Policy on late homework: Homework is due in class on the Thursday specified, and should be in physical form (on paper). When Professors Lee and Haddad leave class after lecture, homework not turned in yet is late. If it is turned in to Professors Lee or Haddad before class starts the following Tuesday, it will earn 80% of its actual score. No points are available after that. This applies to all homeworks except Homework 1.
Policy on improving your homework score: The homeworks should be returned on the Tuesday following the due date. From that time forward, students have one week to redo any questions in which they didn't get full credit. Turn in both your original homework and your corrected homework attached to each other in class the following Tuesday. We will regrade the redone questions and give you 80% of the additional points earned.
Disability Resources Note: If you are a student with a disability who requires accommodations to achieve equal access in this course, please submit your Accommodation Authorization Letter from the Disability Resource Center (DRC) to Professors Haddad or Lee privately during Our office hours or by appointment, preferably within the first two weeks of the quarter. At That time, we would also like to discuss ways we can ensure your full participation in the course. We encourage all students who may benefit from learning more about DRC services to contact DRC by phone at 831-459-2089, or by email at drc@ucsc.edu.
