A steady pace must be maintained throughout the semester in order
to complete all required topics in a thorough manner. Students
experiencing a great deal of difficulty in Chapter 1 should review
(on their own) Appendices A.1-A.5 or should consider taking DVM
1193 (Intermediate Algebra) before returning to this course. Students
who discover difficulty during the first class of the semester
should consider changing their registration during late registration
to DVM 1193. Students who remain in the course but need additional
assistance should consider registering for the supplemental lab
course (MTH 0231). Students also have access to walk-in tutoring
at the Learning Lab.
Attendance is required in this course. Students who miss more
than 4 classes may be withdrawn. After the withdrawal date each
semester, neither the student nor the instructor may initiate
a withdrawal. It is the student's responsibility to initiate all
withdrawals in this course. The instructor may withdraw students
for excessive absences (4) or failure to meet course objectives
but makes no commitment to do this for the student.
Incomplete grades (I) will be given only in very rare circumstances.
Generally, to receive a grade of "I", a student must
have taken all examinations, be passing, and have a personal tragedy
occur after the last date to withdraw which prevents course completion.
