Grade scale
I grade on a straight grade scale. Although most of the points in this class will come towards the end of the quarter, the milestones will help give you a sense of how well you are doing on the final project.

Turning in work and late policy
Late work will receive no credit.

Cheating policy
I have a no tolerance policy on cheating, which includes copying from friends and plagarism. If you get caught cheating, you will get an F in this class and I will turn you into the univerisity's academic integrity group.
