On Exams and Quizzes: All exams and quizzes will be closed book. You cannot give or receive help while taking either an exam or a quiz. In addition, No calculators or computers are allowed during an exam.
On Homework: You are welcome to consult your classmates, your instructors, and your tutors on homework. But please do not copy. We encourage you to work on homework in groups, but please write each problem's solution in your own words. Also, if you do work in groups on a particular problem, please write the names of your group members next to the problem number. Calculators and computing devices are allowed on homework, but remember that you will not be able to use them on your exams and quizzes.
