\smallskip
{\bf MAT 126} is the second semester of the three-semester 
calculus sequence 
MAT 125, 126, 127. 
We will study integration. We will often need to use the theory of
differentiation (MAT 125) and trigonometry. 


\smallskip
{\bf PREREQUISITES}: A grade of C or higher in MAT 124 or 125 or 131 or 141; 
or level 6 on the Mathematics Placement Examination. This exam
will be given on several dates in September. Check the Math
 Undergraduate Office (P-144 Math Tower, phone 2-8250) for times and places.

\centerline{\bf SCHEDULE OF EXAMS}

\medskip
MIDTERM 1: Monday October 16, 2000;  08:30-10:00 pm,  place
to be announced.




\medskip
MIDTERM 2: Thursday November 16, 2000; 08:30-10:00 pm,  place to be
announced.


\medskip
FINAL: {\bf WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 20; 2:00-4:30 pm}, place to be announced.


\smallskip
{\bf IMPORTANT}.
Make sure that you will be available at these times. 
There will be no make-ups for missed mid-term exams. 
However, if you  miss an exam for an acceptable
reason, and provide me with an acceptable written excuse, 
the relevant mid-term will be `dropped' (ignored) in computing your 
course grade. A letter stating that you were seen by a doctor or other medical personnel
is NOT an acceptable document, unless it states that it was
reasonable/proper for you to seek medical attention and medically
necessary for you to miss the exam. (for privacy reasons this note/letter
need not state anything beyond this).
Incompletes will be granted only if documented circumstances beyond 
your control prevent you from taking the final exam. 










\smallskip
{\bf HOMEWORK}: Assigned weekly by  the T.A. during recitation and 
also posted on the web. Due
the following week during recitation. 
Only some of the problems will 
be graded, but which
ones will not be announced in advance. {\bf Late homework will 
 not be accepted. No exceptions}. 


\smallskip
{\bf QUIZZES}: Quizzes will be given twice a month during recitation. 

\smallskip
{\bf GRADE}: Midterm 1 $= 20\%$, Midterm 2 $=20\%$, Final$ = 40\%$, Homework $= 10\%$, 
Quizzes = $10\%$. 
Maximum scores: Midterms 1 and 2: 200pts each ; each homework: 10pts (the 
best ten are used in the grade); each quiz: 20 pts (the best five are 
used in the grade); final 400pts. Total maximum: 1000pts. The 
numerical grade will be converted to a final letter grade only AFTER
the final test  has been graded. However, after each midterm an {\it approximate} 
letter grade will be given to you.


\medskip
{\bf CALCULATORS}: They are not allowed during exams. Books, notes etc. 
are not allowed during exams.
If you need to bring a backpack  etc. to an exam,  you must place it, 
all pockets and flaps closed in plain sight of the proctors. If you 
need to open it (for example if you need a pen) ask  the proctors first.




\medskip
{\bf CONTACTING THE INSTRUCTOR AND/OR THE TEACHING ASSISTANT.}
E-mail is the best method for making appointments outside normal office 
hours. E-mail is not, however, a good way to ask math questions, as our typing
abilities are very limited. 
After the course is over, if you have any questions about 
your final grade send a letter (not an e-mail)
to your instructor, c/o Dept. Math, SUNY Stony Brook, Stony Brook N.Y. 11794-3651. 
You will receive a written reply. These matters will be dealt with in writing
only; that way, we have a written record of what the student says, and what we reply.


\medskip
{\bf GOLDEN RULES.} 
{\bf Punctuality}: no late arrivals, no early departures: they are 
disruptive. If, occasionally, 
you need to leave early, let me know beforehand. {\bf Silence}: it is 
always a good rule and even more important for us since it is a big 
class; do show 
respect to other fellow students by not disturbing the class.
{\bf NO CELLULAR PHONES.}
