Evaluation and Grade Assignment
Tests
4 tests, 150 points each
Objective: a mixture of problems, matching, fill in the
blank, true/false, multiple choice, short
answers
Dates: February 9, Thursday
March 9, Thursday
April 6, Thursday
May 9, Tuesday, 10:00-11:50 AM
*Graduating seniors take Test 4 May 1-5
Class Assignments (Bonus points)
An assignment will be given each class meeting. The maximum
total grade from these bonus assignments is 60 points.
You can
work together on these assignments. You can use your notes, the
book, the internet, etc. Assignments are to be handed in at the
end of class. YOU have to hand it in. Another student cannot
hand it in for you. No makeup bonus questions. This means that
the more that you are absent, you are not likely to get the
maximum bonus points.
Make-up Test
If a student knows before a test date that he/she may be absent,
he/she should let me know before the test date. If a student has
a problem on the day of the test, he/she is to contact me
(leaving enough information for me to get back in contact with
him/her) ASAP. By doing so, he/she may be able to avoid the
make-up policy. If you are running late, come to class. You
3
will be given time after the class ends to finish the test. If
you totally miss the class and come in later on the day of the
test, you can still take it.
(1) For one missed test, taking the test after the test day will
require a 750 word report. If a student misses a second test
day, he/she will have to write a 2500 word report. If the
student misses a third test day, he/she will have to write a
5000 word report. Each of these reports is to be handed in
BEFORE a make-up test is scheduled. The format and subject of
the report will be given to the student when he/she returns
to class. So, if you miss 3 tests, you will need to write 3
reports and take 3 make-up tests. The report is to be handed
in as an attachment to an email.
(2) Any curve applied to a test taken by students at the
scheduled time will NOT be applied to a test not taken on the
scheduled day.

Mid-Term Grading: 3/01-3/10
Undergraduate mid-term grades will be posted on-line for students to
view via Banner. Mid-term grades indicate a student’s status at midsemester only and do not indicate the final performance outcome of a
student.

Class Policies and Procedures
•All policies stated in the current ULM Student Policy Manual & Organizational
Handbook are followed. http://www.ulm.edu/studentpolicy/
The following is from the manual:
All people carrying cell phones into a classroom, laboratory, or clinic must turn off
and store (e.g., in a backpack, purse, phone holster, or other similar item) their phones prior to
entering the room. Cell phones are not allowed on desk or table tops. If there is an extenuating
circumstance that requires the cell phone to be on during a class, the student must obtain
permission from the instructor prior to the beginning of class and must operate the phone in a
silent (vibrate only) mode.
Textbook (optional): General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry.
Deal, 2nd Edition
Attendance: You are expected to attend class.
will be reported.

Make-up Policy: See Evaluation and Grade Assignment section
Course Evaluation Policy: You are expected to complete the
on-line course evaluation.

Student services:
The University of Louisiana at Monroe strives to serve students with special needs through
compliance with Sections 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with
Disabilities Act. These laws mandate that postsecondary institutions provide equal access to
programs and services for students with disabilities without creating changes to the essential
elements of the curriculum. While students with special needs are expected to meet our
institution's academic standards, they are given the opportunity to fulfill learner outcomes in
alternative ways. Examples of accommodations may include, but are not limited to, testing
accommodations (oral testing, extended time for exams), interpreters, relocation of
inaccessible classrooms, permission to audiotape lectures, note-taking assistance, and course
substitutions.
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 prohibits sex discrimination against any
participant in an educational program or activity that receives federal funds, including
federal loans and grants. Furthermore, Title IX prohibits sex discrimination to include sexual
misconduct, sexual violence, sexual harassment and retaliation. If you encounter unlawful
sexual harassment or gender-based discrimination, please contact Student Services at
318-342-5230 or to file a complaint, visit www.ulm.edu/titleix.

Emergency Procedures and Safety
Evacuation Plan
If there is an alarm or if you are instructed to evacuate the building, these are the
instructions.
1.

3.
4.
Take everything with you. We will not be coming back into the building.
Exit through the nearest door. This will take you to the stairwell in the left
corner of the front of the building. If that stairwell is blocked, then go to the
one on the right side of the front of the building. If both are blocked, go to
one of the stairwells in the back of the building.
Go stand in front of the Nursing Building. Go into the lobby if it is
raining.
Stay until I (your teacher, not another classmate or another
teacher) call the roll. Once you hear your name, you can leave.
Do not go back into CNSB.
