Class Outline and Policies

I have created a spreadsheet in OpenOffice.org format and in Excel format which shows what your grades would be; just enter your current scores and what you hope to get on the remaining assignments into row 5, and the spreadsheet will calculate your grade.

Improving Your Grade

I am not going to give extra credit in addition to the “shoes” t-statistic lab, but I will give you until 18 May to re-do any one assignment (except for presentations). The maximum score you can get on the assignment will be 85%.
