Late Homework:	Homeworks are due generally on a Saturday by 5:00 pm. Recognizing that work, 
               		computers, etc. occasionally take control, no late penalty is 
               		assessed for two late homeworks (i.e. the same one late two classes 
               		running, two late for one class each, etc.). After two, each class 
               		late reduces the homework grade by 25%.
Ethics:        	All work is subject to the Indiana University Code of Student Ethics.
