Assignment Due Dates

The course Assignment Due Dates policy states:

1. You will not receive credit for any assignment passed in after the due date. If illness or other personal issues are keeping you from fulfilling an assignment, you must contact me before the assignment is due, or you will receive a zero (0%) for the missed assignment.
2. Students are responsible for handing in any assignments due on the day of an absence.

I have been pretty lenient about this policy as you get up to speed, but we are well into the semester so this policy is in effect. Please act accordingly.
