\newcommand\gradingPolicy{Most labs will be graded on a scale of 1-20 and classified as 'Good', 'Ok/Pass', or 'ReSubmit'.
\\Some labs and reports will be graded on a scale of 1-100.
\\The grading criteria includes:
\\ • Code works as specified
\\ • Code has a meaningful header and meaningful comments (nicely aligned)
\\ • Code is correctly and consistently indented
\\ • Code is elegant and makes appropriate use of functions, data structures, etc.
\\
\\Letter grade scale: A(93--100), A--(90--92), B+(87--89), B(83--86), B--(80--82),
\\ C+(77--79),C(73--76), C--(70--72), D+(67--69), D(63--66), D--(60--62), F(<60)}
\newcommand\HWandLabPolicy{Each Lab assignment (including all subsection parts eg. Lab1a-d) is assigned a period to be completed, checked off by a lab assistant, and uploaded to BB per the table above. Labs that are not completed by the start of the lab assignment period will be deemed ‘late’ and will receive a \textbf{2 point/week} penalty on your final grade. Unexcused lab absences if you are behind and work is ‘late’ will also receive a \textbf{2 point} penalty. 
\\
\\For \textbf{all} lab work it is considered a  \textbf{violation of academic integrity} to electronically copy the work of another or to allow your own work to be copied.  For some lab assignments (specified in the lab sheets) and for the Final Project, students may \textbf{not} assist each other in any way.  Otherwise, students are encouraged to help each other, not by sharing your own solutions but by answering questions or suggesting directions to get to the solution – ie by ‘teaching’ your classmates}
\newcommand\AttendancePolicy{\textcolor{red}{Lab attendance is mandatory except for excused absences}, but note:
\\• Most of the labs are ‘portable’ so you can develop code outside of formal lab times if you need to catch up.
\\• If there is space, you can makeup labs or get checked off in the other lab section (same time on Tues/Thur).}
\newcommand\ElectronicsPolicy{\textcolor{red}{Since you opted for a customize electronics policy, you should edit this part. Your policy should address your general stance on recording of class sessions and the circumstances under which recording will be allowed or prohibited. If you generally prohibit recording, yet allow recording of certain classes for some reason, then ypu should notify all students that those classes will be recorded. If recording is permitted as an ADA accommodation for a student, you obviously should not identify that student(s).)}}
