Make-up exams will be given only in rare cases, and only if you’ve made every effort to notify Dr. Remaley of the problemas soon as was possible. Otherwise, you may be given a zero for the exam.

Homework: Online homework is done in MyMathLab through Pearson Education (see the MyMathLab registration handoutlink at the course web page). Due dates for each online assignment are given in MyMathLab. Any questions from an onlineassignment that are done after the assignment’s deadline will be assessed a 50% penalty. Written assignments and their duedates will be posted at my course webpage metioned above. A paper which appears to be copied from another student orother outside source may be given reduced credit (possibly zero). Your best 12 of 14 written homework assignments willbe counted. As a rule, late homework is not accepted. Exceptions will only be considered in rare, extreme cases (whencircumstances were unexpected and beyond the student’s control, and the student has informed the instructor promptly).Even when exceptions are made, stiff penalties may be enforced.

Topics: We will cover selected sections from chapters 11 through 14. Topics include: equations of lines and planes in R3;

functions of multiple variables; vector-valued functions; vector fields; partial derivatives; gradient vector; tangent planes;iterated integrals; line integrals; surface integrals; Green’s Theorem; Stokes’ Theorem; Divergence Theorem.

Math Learning Center: Successful students make use of available resources, so don’t struggle when help is just a fewsteps away! We want you to succeed, we’re here for you, and we have FREE tutoring available in the Math LearningCenter (Cleveland 130) and the computing lab, Thompson Hall (Room 1). Tutoring begins August 22nd.

Academic Integrity: Academic integrity is the cornerstone of higher education. As such, all members of the universitycommunity share responsibility for maintaining and promoting the principles of integrity in all activities, including academicintegrity and honest scholarship. Academic integrity will be strongly enforced in this course. Students who violate WSUsAcademic Integrity Policy (identified in Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 504-26-010(3) and -404) will receive a zerograde on the assignment or exam in question, will not have the option to withdraw from the course pending an appeal, andwill be reported to the Office of Student Conduct. Cheating includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism and unauthorizedcollaboration as defined in the Standards of Conduct for Students, WAC 504-26-010(3). You need to read and understand allof the definitions of cheating: http://app.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=504-26-010. If you have any questionsabout what is and is not allowed in this course, you should ask course instructors before proceeding. If you wish to appeal afaculty member’s decision relating to academic integrity, please use the form available at http://conduct.wsu.edu.

Students with Disabilities: Reasonable accomodations are available for students with a documented disability. If you havea disability and need accomodations to fully participate in this class, please either visit or call the Access Center (WashingtonBuilding 217; 509-335-3417) to schedule an appointment with an Access Adviser.

Classroom Safety Information: Classroom and campus safety are of paramount importance at Washington State Uni-versity, and are the shared responsibility of the entire campus population. WSU urges students to follow the “Alert, Assess,Act,” protocol for all types of emergencies and the “Run, Hide, Fight” response for an active shooter incident (url below).Remain ALERT (through direct observation or emergency notification), ASSESS your specific situation, and ACT in themost appropriate way to assure your own safety (and the safety of others if you are able). Please sign up for emergency alertson your account at MyWSU. For more information on this subject, campus safety, and related topics, please view the FBIs“Run, Hide, Fight” video (https://oem.wsu.edu/emergency-procedures/active-shooter/) and visit the WSU safetyportal (https://oem.wsu.edu/about-us/).
