turned in just after the lecture on the due date
 No make up exams unless student can produce a medical certificate
or give evidence of close family emergency
 Copying material from other sources will not be permitted unless the
source is properly referenced
 Any student who plagiarizes from other sources will be reported to
the appropriate UTD authroities
