A portion of the

Wednesday. Something about other
tests. We'll have to poll the class on Monday, since the "announced"
date is Wednesday. |

Physics 103 – General (Introductory) Physics I
Meeting: Rm. 20 DeLaRoche; MWF 11:30 AM
– 12:20 PMThe first semester of General (Introductory) Physics is concerned with motion
of a point mass, rotation of rigid bodies, forces, momentum, energy, and the
idea of conservation.
The work of the course consists of three parts: exercises, period exams, and
a final examination. The exercise assignments will not be collected &
graded. Therefore, the total score for the course will be determined by
the period exams and the final exam, in
the following proportions:
Exams (75%) Final
Examination (25%)
There is no Extra Credit.
Based on the total score for the course, letter grades will be assigned according to the following scheme:
90% . . . |
A |
86.67% . . . |
A- |
83.33% . . . |
B+ |
80% . . . |
B |

B- |

C+ |

Students will be issued personal identification numbers (PIN) with which they may access their scores during the semester through the course web page.
The way to score well on the exams is to practice—this is the purpose of the exercises. On the other hand, it is inefficient to pore over a particular exercise for too long a time. After making a good faith effort to master a particular exercise, or physical/mathematical concept, feel free to consult with fellow students or with the instructor both in and out of class.
Academic dishonesty is inconsistent with the moral character expected of students in a university committed to the spiritual and intellectual growth of the whole person. It also subverts the academic process by distorting all measurements. It is a serious matter and will be dealt with accordingly. A list of unacceptable practices, penalties to be assigned, and procedures to be followed in prosecuting cases of alleged academic dishonesty may be found in the Student Handbook.
Students with disabilities who believe that they may need accommodations in this class are encouraged to contact the Disability Support Services Office, Doyle room 26, at 375-2065 as soon as possible to better ensure that such accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion. Documentation from this office is required before accommodations can be made.
