webpage located https://courses.cs.sfu.ca
(to be dicussed).
- Assignments and examinations
will be open to review
for one week only.
- Students are expected
to communicate in English at
a level of proficiency that is
becoming of an educated person -
particularly, of a university
student in upper division standing
(please contact The Center for Research
for Professional and Academic
Writing in the English department
for assistance). Remember,
you are not working for a technical certificate.
A university degree is
a sign of "education," which entails
both breadth of knowledge and acumen
for communicating concepts.
- Be aware of the fact
that the midterm date is
after the
last day to drop classes.
- Plagiarism will result, at the very least,
in an automatic failing of the assignment/exam and formal disciplinary action.
