TURNING IN FINAL BONUS BUCKS: If you do not follow the instructions for turning in your remaining bonus bucks, you will receive NO points. To turn them in, they MUST be in envelopes (with your name) with the number of bucks inside clearly written on the front and the number of percentage points earned next to the total number. THEN, you must mark where you would like the Bonus Bucks to be credited. They can be credited to Intro or Exceptionalities or a combo of both. Failure to write the number of bucks and designate where you want them applied will exempt you from Bonus Bucks extra credit. BONUS BUCKS are to be turned in on the last day of class (except for those turned in to extend due dates for assignments.) Bonus Bucks are NONTRANSFERABLE-please do not share.
Example:
| NAME | |
| | Number # of Bonus Bucks owned |

A WORD TO THE WISE:
If you have a question about a grade, it is best to schedule an appointment with the professor to discuss it. Do not to send an email. Grades are given according to the rubrics using professional judgment. Although each professor is willing to discuss grade issues with you, grades are not generally subject to change unless a mathematical or serious interpretation error has been made.
Final class grades can be figured by adding all of your class points from the semester. Except for participation points in Intro, you have all the grades the professors have. Grades will not be given out prior to grade reports.
