Professor Browning's Course Policies

•  Academic integrity is an expectation of all students and faculty at UMD. See UMD Academic Integrity Policy for a statement on academic integrity and definitions of key terms. Violations of academic integrity will be handled according to the procedures outlined at this site.

•  Students must arrive on time and remain until the conclusion of the class.

•  Absences with their consequent lacunae are the student's own responsibility.

•  A missed exam is a failed exam. Exceptions are university-excused absences with prior notice; see the policy at UMD Absence Policy

•  Late course projects are accepted with a grade reduction of one letter grade per calendar day.

•  All work submitted for course credit (except for in-class essays and quizzes) must be typed and spell-checked, printed legibly on good quality paper, with student's last name and first name clearly printed at the top of each page, with multiple sheets stapled.

•  Courtesy to other students is an expectation of class membership. This entails refraining from extraneous noise-making, staying awake and in a reasonably upright posture, and keeping electronic devices other than laptops turned off.

•  Questions are welcome at any time, and along with their answers are generally of benefit to all members of the class. Please do ask that question!
