Additional Comments: It’s important that you have your textbook
and access to the required software the first day of class, so please
plan accordingly. This is a short term class and time will pass VERY
quickly. The course is designed to allow you to work ahead if you would
like. If you fall behind, however, it is very difficult for you to catch
up. If you don’t wish to remain in the class, contact the Counseling
Center or Distance Learning Help Desk to initiate the process of
withdrawing from the class. Failure to do so may result in your receipt
of a failing grade.
