NOTES:

• Work is due by end of the day, not start of the day. Students use the due day to complete work due that night.
• Vacations are allowed (this session only). Students may miss up to two due dates but must negotiate with the instructor which two, if any, at the start of the course.
• 10 assignments and 12 due dates allows each student to miss 2 due dates or to finish 2 weeks early.
• When a student takes vacation, the schedule moves to later (#2 is due when #3 was due, #4 is due when #5 was due, etc.). Assignments cannot be moved out of sequence.
• No textbook purchase is necessary.
