is not an issue but completion of assignments by specified due dates is
required for satisfactory progress. If you do not meet the first assignment
deadline, I will assume you do not wish to stay in the class and may drop
you unless you contact me. Deadlines are defined as follows: homework
assignments, Case Study analysis and the mid-term and final exams are
expected to be completed and electronically submitted on or before the
stated due date as listed in the syllabus to receive full credit. Just as it
is the students’ responsibility to sign up for the course it is your
