Disclaimer
The syllabus for this class, as currently presented, is not fixed or immovable in its stipulations. Instead, it is open to alterations and modifications based upon the judgment of the overseeing professor. The reason for this flexibility is to potentially allow for alterations that would better align with, and promote, the educational objectives that have been set for this course. If the professor decides to implement any changes or modifications to the existing syllabus, the students will be alerted to these adjustments. This will either be done in the course of a scheduled class when everyone is present, or through an announcement which would be sent directly to each student's email.
