The Owlnet system will be used for dispersing information. The class home page is at http://www.owlnet.rice.edu/~comp200, and the class OWL-space web site will be used for answering common questions, any homework clarifications, and so on. You are expected to check it every few days.

Although homework problems are not pledged, per se, the submitted solution must be the work of the students whose names appear on the paper and not copied from other students' assignments or other sources. There are times when template code may be copied directly from the course website or notes taken in class. This is certainly acceptable. If you are ever unsure of what is allowed, please ask the instructor.

COMP 200 includes a final project whose details will be given later in the semester.  We may allow students to work in pairs on the final project.

The final project is subject to the honor code insofar as students should produce their own work and not directly copy written material or programs from the required and recommended texts or other sources.

Students will take three tests during the semester. The first two will occur during the semester in class. The third will occur during the final exam period.

Any student with a documented disability seeking academic adjustments or accommodations is requested to speak with the instructors during the first two weeks of class.  All such discussions will remain as confidential as possible.  Students with disabilities will need to also contact Disability Support Services in the Allen Center (room 111).

Any student with a disability requiring accommodations in this course is encouraged to contact the instructor after class or during office hours.  Additionally, students will also need to contact Disability Support Services in the Allen Center (room 111).

If you have a documented disability that will impact your work in this class, please contact the instructors to discuss your needs.  Additionally, you will need to register with the Disability Support Services Office in the Allen Center (room 111).
