1. Come to class.
2. Do not bring cell phones or other electronic devices.
3. Read the Chapters assigned and do the homework assigned (not to be handed in).
4. If you email me with a question, write the question out completely. I may not have the text book with me (I spend some time in a research group at NIEHS, RTP).
5. Work as many extra problems as possible.
6. Try to understand everything about the assignments; If there are concepts from Chem 101 that you don't understand, make a real effort early in the course to overcome.
7. Chemistry is a very cool subject; learn to like it, if you don't already; the sooner, the better.
If something happens, such as bad weather, direct hit by interstellar object, civil unrest, sick professor, national championship basketball victory, etc., so that you wonder if class will be held, check the website and your email. I tend to show up, regardless.
I taught 40 years in this department - this course many times. The path to success in the course is to follow the "Rules" above.

You may bring a standard-sized sheet of paper (to be handed in) with anything you wish written on one side to the exams. Exams will largely be problems like those on the homework. Material covered in class which expands on the book or problems is also possible.
