Late Homework Policy<\/strong>
In general, students are encouraged to hand-in their homework on time. Only under exceptional circumstances will late homework be allowed. Electronic submissions are due by the end of day (i.e., before midnight) on the due date. Assignments will be graded out of 100 points, and 10 points will be deducted for every day that the homework is late. Late submissions can be arranged with the instructor and TA for extenuating circumstances. Also, be warned that the TA may take off points for illegible or disorganized work.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
