Handouts in Class
Office Hours:
M,W,F: 9:00-9:50 AM
and by appointment
I will try and hold open office hours and you are welcome to drop by anytime. My office
is around the corner from the SCLB 263 departmental computing lab, and if I am busy
you can let me know you need help and then go study in the computing lab. I'll drop by
as soon as I am free.
Chemistry Computer Laboratory: SCLB 263 This is an open computer lab where you
can access any of the WEB based assignments and tutorials.
Tutoring:
To be announced
Class Bulletin Board: Outside SCLB 277 keys to exams and quizzes will be posted.
Attendance: Attendance is required. There will be announced and unannounced
quizzes. Absence during a quiz equates to a zero score. If you miss three labs periods,
you get an F for this course (see lab syllabus).
Lecture:
Read the text assignments before the class period. The lecture will be
used to cover expected competencies with respect to the subject material and should
provide an efficient study guide. Coming to lecture is necessary, but not sufficient with
respect to getting a passing grade. You must study outside of lecture.

There will be NO MAKEUP EXAMS or QUIZZES. If your final exam score (on a
100% basis) is higher than your lowest exam, its grade will be substituted for that grade.
In the event that you miss an exam, that exam will be considered your lowest exam score
and your final will be substituted for that grade. All quizzes and exams will be closed
book and closed notes. You will not be allowed to use programmable calculators and
students may not share calculators during quizzes or exams. Cell Phones must be
turned off and out-of-sight during exams. Cheating is strictly forbidden.
The last day to withdraw from this course is April 16.
Final Exam is 8:00-10:00 AM Wednesday, May 9

University of Arkansas at Little Rock to create inclusive learning environments
consistent with federal and state law. If you have a documented disability (or need to
have a disability documented), and need an accommodation, please contact me privately
as soon as possible, so that we can discuss with the Disability Resource Center (DRC)
how to meet your specific needs and the requirements of the course. The DRC offers
resources and coordinates reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities.
Reasonable accommodations are established through an interactive process among you,
your instructor(s) and the DRC. Thus, if you have a disability, please contact me and/or
the DRC, at 501-569-3143 (V/TTY) or 501-683-7629 (VP). For more information, please
