Homework to me at the end of the class on due dates or slide it through
my office (HB 454) door.
No late homework will be accepted without a valid reason.
You are encouraged to discuss homework
problems with other students, but you should write them up on your own. Please
staple your homework. Graded homework
will be kept in a box just outside my office (HB 454) door.
