Text               Calculus, 6th edition by James Stewart

Honor Code          The core values of the University of Texas at Austin are learning, discovery, freedom, leadership, individual opportunity, and responsibility. Each member of the University is expected to uphold these values through integrity, honesty, trust, fairness, and respect toward peers and community.

Exam Dates
                 September 22, October 20, and November 17

Final Exam Date              Friday, December 11             9:00 am - 12:00 pm in WRW 102
Each student may use a single 8.5"x11" sheet of original handwritten notes as a test aid for the three exams during the term and three 8.5"x11" sheets of original handwritten notes for the final exam.  Calculators are NOT allowed to be used during exams.  Students must show all work to each solution.
 
Homework
Homework will be assigned Tuesday and Thursday during lecture class meetings and collected/returned during Monday discussion section meetings.  Students are encouraged to work together on homework solutions.  However, each student should write their own solutions to homework problems.  Copying another student's solution or that from another text is a violation of the honor code and fails to contribute to your personal mathematical development.  Students must show all work to each solution.
 
Grading      
10% Homework

18% Exam 1
