Rules for Final Exam

• Exam location: Rooms will be posted on the web page as far in advance as possible.
• Time allowed: 8 - 11 a.m., as determined by the bell (or, if the bell malfunctions, by my timepiece). If you show up late, you will still have to finish by 11 a.m.!
• Excused absences: See the Course Policies page for details on missed final exams. You will have to get a letter from the Dean if you miss the exam and have a legitimate excuse.
• Cheating: Don't do it! See the Student Code for official university policies. Customary rules apply, among them:
  • You may not talk to other students.
  • You may not seek assistance from anyone else during the exam.
  • You may not look at the exam of someone else.
  • All other standard rules about cheating! You should know what they are. As the Student Code says, "Ignorance of a rule is never a defense."
• Calculators: Calculators are not allowed! You won't need one, anyway.
• Other electronic devices: no electronic device of any kind is allowed: no cell phones, iPods, laptops, walkmen, headphones, blackberries, etc.
• Books/notes: you may not use any books, notes, formula sheets, etc.
• Scratch paper: you may not bring your own scratch paper. I will provide adequate scratch paper for use during the exam.
• Hats: you may not wear a hat or other headgear during the exam.
• Student IDs: you must bring your student ID to the exam. I reserve the right to check it!
• Questions: If you have any questions about the rules, you should ask before the exam.
