General Course Features and Policies

Material covered: You should read the textbook. Lecture only emphasizes key material, but does not cover all required material.
Communicating with the instructor and TA: You must use your UCR e-mail account. E-mails sent from other accounts (Yahoo, Hotmail, MSN, AOL, GMail, etc.) will be treated as spam and deleted automatically.
Re-grade policy: Grade-database errors should be pointed out within one week of posting.
Final grades: Per university policy, changes to your final grade will be made only in the event of a clerical error.
