Instructor: Bob Matthews
Fall 2011 Math 160 I Lecture and Exam Schedule
The last time I taught this course
A syllabus for the course will be found here.
There will be two varieties of exercises in this course.
Participation in class is important, and regular attendance and participation is expected. Excessive absences will result in a reduced grade, and, in extreme cases, will result in the student's removal from the class.
We will be using Minitab throughout the semester for class work and assignments. Minitab is available in the campus labs. Students may purchase full copies for a semester or a year from www.onthehub.com/minitab. The price list and general description of academic pricing can be viewed at http://www.minitab.com/uploadedFiles/Shared_Resources/Documents/Brochures/EacademyFlyer.pdf. Tutorials on MiniTab are available when you run MiniTab (check the HELP menu item), and an introduction to MiniTab (available with the software can be found by following this link.
Faculty have been asked to insert the following in course syllabi:
Please review university emergency preparedness and response procedures posted
at
www.pugetsound.edu/emergency/. There is a link on the university home
page. Familiarize yourself with hall exit doors and the designated gathering
area for your class and laboratory buildings.
If building evacuation becomes necessary (e.g. earthquake), meet your instructor at the designated gathering area so she/he can account for your presence. Then wait for further instructions. Do not return to the building or classroom until advised by a university emergency response representative.
If confronted by an act of violence, be prepared to make quick decisions to protect your safety. Flee the area by running away from the source of danger if you can safely do so. If this is not possible, shelter in place by securing classroom or lab doors and windows, closing blinds, and turning off room lights. Stay low, away from doors and windows, and as close to the interior hallway walls as possible. Wait for further instructions.
