HOMEWORK:  All students should maintain a file of solved homework problems. Homework problems include those assigned in the course handout as well as in the class. Bring this file to class evryday.

I will ask you to submit a particular assigned problem(s) in class at least 6 times during the semester. Due to the nature of the submission requirements, no late homework will be accepted. The lowest homework grade will be dropped.
