All coursework is due by Sunday at 11:59pm. Due dates are indicated on thecourse calendar.

If you think you may have trouble completing an assignment, contact me before the due date tomake alternate arrangements. Missed assignments will receive a grade of 0. All work is submitted through Turnitin. If adocument comes back with more than 20% similarity to other sources, the student will receive a zero on that assignment
