EH 1301 SYLLABUS
Syllabus
Student Responsibility: All assigned reading and writing must be accomplished on the dates specified on the schedule. If you do not hand in a paper on time, you must write a note at the end of the paper to explain why it is being handed in late. You will be allowed ONE late paper. After that, you will receive a one letter grade reduction on your final grade for EACH late paper. English 1301 is a writing course and your text is as important to class as the textbooks you read.
