* Online Students: Quiz 3 was due at 11:59PM yesterday. If you missed the quiz, 
  or if you made prior arrangements with me, you still can take it, but you need
  to do this ASAP. You should have gotten a password to do this quiz in your ISU 
  email, but if you misplaced it somehow, send me an email.

  I'm currently in the process of grading these quizzes and will havve your 
  grades ready soon.

* If you have any missing assignments, you have until December 4 @11:59 PM to 
  submit them. After that time, I will no longer accept them, so please get 
  those submitted. A late grade is better than no grade.

* The last homework assignment has been released. This assignment is on 
  Blackboard and is the Fake Final. This will be very similar to the final that 
  the online students will be taking during finals week. 

  This assignment will be due on December 2 at 11:59PM EST. If you do the 
  assignment, and if I can see that you actually tried on the problems, then 
  regardless of whether you are right or wrong, I'll give you a 10/10. So don't 
  turn in a blank assignment or put random answers in, because Blackboard does 
  tell me how long you took to do this assignment.

  You will also get a score out of 75 representing what your score would be if 
  this was actually the final, but that particular score will not be used to 
  calculate your grade, only the 10/10 you get upon turning it in (assuming you 
  actually tried) will be recorded.

* The in-person section will take their final on December 9 at 3PM. You will 
  have two hours to complete the exam.  

* The online section's final will be made available at 12:01am EST on December 6
  and will be due on December 10 at 11:59PM. You will have 2 hours to complete 
  the exam and can take it anytime during that week. 

  This section's exam will be open book, open note, open internet, but NOT open 
  other people. Once you start the exam, you have to finish it in one sitting, 
  so only take it if you know you're ready.

  Also, the online section and the in-person section will get different versions
  of the exam. 


That should be it for now, have a good Thanksgiving!
