Anytime (including nights or weekends if necessary) except in the morning before our class.  See me after class or send me an e-mail to arrange a meeting.  I encourage quick questions by electronic mail.  With longer questions or many questions, please come to see me.

Grade:

EEB 245:  There will be two one hour exams covering each half of the course (listed on the syllabus) and a comprehensive one hour synthetic final exam.  The second one-hour exam will be given in the same two-hour time block as the synthetic final.  The first exam will count 40% and the second hour exam plus the final will count 60%.
+
 
+
EEB  245W:  If you are registered for EEB 245W, 75% of the final  course grade will be determined by your lecture exams (as above) and 25% by your term  paper.  As usual, an F in the W part of the course will result in  an  F for  the  entire course.  At least two drafts of your writing  assignment  must be  successfully completed to pass the course.  A detailed set of  instructions will  be provided and W students will be assigned a W instructor during  the first week of class.

The syllabus always evolves.  I will periodically send updated versions which track our true progress and introduce late breaking topics.
