Office Hours	11:00-12:00 Mon,Wed,Fri; 6:30-7:00 Mon,Thu; online Mon 2:00-3:00
Class Meetings	9:30-10:50 Mon, Wed, Fri
Text	Intermediate Algebra for College Students, 4th edition, Robert Blitzer
	Geometry Connections, 3rd edition, Barbara Brown
Attendance	You are expected to attend all class meetings.  If an emergency occurs, it is your responsibility to make up the missed work.
Content	Algebra parts of 1-9, Geometry 1-7
Calculators	Calculators may be allowed on some parts of some exams.   Instruction will be provided on the TI-83 calculator.
Assignments	My expectation is that you will spend an average of two hours outside of class per hour in class.  There will be some assignments that will be turned in for credit.  Late assignments will NOT be accepted.  Missing a class period when an assignment is due is NOT an excuse for late assignments.  Other assignments may be given (including quizzes).  Do NOT fall behind in your homework.
Tentative Exams	Exam 1 - Ch 1, 2, 3, 4		100 points	13-Feb
	Exam 2 - Ch 5, 6, 7		100 points	28-Mar
	Exam 3 - Ch 7, 8, 9		100 points	23-Apr
	Geo Exam -Geo 1-7		60 points	9-May
	Quiz 1 - Ch 1, 2		10 points	30-Jan
	Quiz 2 - Ch 5		10 points	3-Mar
	Quiz 3 - Ch 6, 7		10 points	26-Mar
	Quiz 4 - Ch 7, 8		10 points	11-Apr
	Final - Cummulative		200 points	13-May 9:40-11:40
	Exams must be taken during the scheduled time.  No late exams will be given.  If you miss an exam, I will replace your score of zero with your score on the final exam.  I will only replace ONE exam score (the missed exam CANNOT be the final exam).  Any form of cheating will result in a zero.
Grading	90-100%	A
	80-89%	B
	70-79%	C
	60-69%	D
	below 60%	F
Pass/No Credit	If you wish to take this course on a pass/no credit basis, you must inform me in writing by the end of the first week.  Passing is 70% or better.  Be sure to check with your counselor first.
Incomplete	No incomplete will be considered unless you are earning a C or above, have completed more than half the course, and have missed class because of extreme circumstances.
Drop/Withdraw	The last day to withdraw from a course is 4-24.  See Student Handbook for more details.
Accomodations for Students with Special Needs
	Anoka Ramsey Community College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender sexual orientation, religion, age or disability in employment or in the provision of our services.  Within the first week of class, students with special needs that require accomodations should contact the Director of Access Services (Scott Bay 763-433-1334) to discuss possible support services.
