Attendance for the class contributes 5\% of your overall grade. Each class period, attendance will be taken via TopHat during the first 5 minutes of class. The threshold for achieving the full 5\% attendance points will be to attend 80\% of classes. \textbf{Please do not come to class if you are not feeling well. If you are not able to attend class, simply send an email before class letting me know.} Excused absences will not be counted as an absence. All lectures and sample problem solutions will be posted to Blackboard (Usually the same day).
