CSE 101 -- Computers -- A General Introduction -- Section JT
Policies
Late Policy
Assignments must be handed in on time, no late
assignments will be accepted unless extreme circumstances arise and
are properly documented.
Academic Integrity
We will follow the University
Policy on Academic Integrity, detailed in the Undergraduate
Catalog. For more information see the UB
Teaching and Learning Resources Student Conduct Rules web page. A
good application of these rules to computer science is given on the department's
web page. Take the time to familiarize yourself with the contents
of these pages. Pursuant to the Deparment's policy, anyone caught
in violation of the policies on academic dishonesty on any assignment
will be given a grade of F in the course. For especially flagrant
violations, formal proceedings will be initiated. Such proceedings can
call for harsher sanction including expulsion from the
University. Your work may be evaluated for infractions of academic
integrity at any time up until the time you graduate.
Incompletes
Incompletes (I grades) will be given only in
truly extraordinary circumstances where the student is passing the
course but an unexpected emergency or serious illness prevents him or
her from completing the final exam or one of the lab projects. Do
not ask for an incomplete unless you fall into this category.
Attendance
Attendance is important. There tends to be a strong correlation
between class attendance and grade performance. Students are expected
to attend every scheduled lecture and lab meeting. On the rare
occasion that you cannot avoid being absent, you are responsible for
getting class notes/assignments from a classmate, and making up missed
lab work on your own. Please email (burhans@cse.buffalo.edu) or leave
a phone message for your instructor if you are going to miss class
(645-3180 ext. 139).
Disabilities
If you have a diagnosed disability (physical, learning, or
psychological) that will make it difficult for you to carry out the
course work as outlined, or that requires accommodations such as
recruiting note-takers, readers, or extended time on exams or
assignments, please advise your instructor during the first two weeks of the course
and immediately contact the Office of Disability Services. This will
allow time to plan for any necessary accomodations.
