{\bf Homework:} & Homework will be assigned  every class and will be collected
                  every Monday in class. As a rule, I prefer not to accept
late homework.
                  There will be a grader for the course, and accepting late
homework
                  requires  a lot of hassle in getting to her or him.
                  I will accept it late if there is a reasonable excuse,
but I will appreciate
                  it if you avoid such situations.
\\[1.3ex]
{\bf Exams:} & There will be three Midterm Exams and a two-hour Final on the
               following dates:\\[.5ex]
