Four Papers will be given and expectations for graded performance will be discussed. (Absences: 4 - 1/3d reduction.

Exam questions are announced prior to the exams and students have the option to write in-class or submit a paper. No make-up exams and  password not accepted after 2d week of classes. Extra credit is never given in Dr Jack's classes because: 1. It is academic blackmail and 2. It is unfair to other students. All papers will be thoughtfully written and follow principles outlined in The Survival Manual. Content of papers will be a summary of the lectures/text and applied as explanation for everyday situations and experience. Question for all exams: "Give a two page synopsis of material covered in appropriate quarter. What is the main theme? What do you agree with and what do you disagree with.?
