Prerequisites
Math 22, 26; or Math 40 or Math 41; or a satisfactory performance on the algebra and trigonometry math proficiency exam. Students who both do not meet the prerequisite and do not drop the course will be dis-enrolled.
Text Book
Calculus, Ninth Edition, or Calculus Part 1, Ninth Edition both authored by Thomas and Finney, and published by Addison Wesley. (Available either in the regular edition or a special PSU edition.)
Course Syllabus
The current semester dated syllabus for Math 140 is available on-line at: http://www.math.psu.edu/UG/courses.htm
Calculators
A graphics calculator is recommended. It is useful as a study and learning tool when used appropriately. Calculus is a collection of ideas which are not mastered through calculator skills. No calculators are allowed on the two midterm and final examinations.
Examinations
There are two midterm examinations, from 6:30-7:45PM and a final examination given during examination week at the end of the semester.
Midterm Examination I: THURSDAY, FEB. 20TH: 6:30-7:45PM.
Midterm Examination II: MONDAY, MAR. 24TH:
6:30-7:45 PM
A complete listing of room assignments for these exams will be posted in the display case on first floor of McAllister Building and across from room 109 Whitmore Laboratory. They are also available on line at: http://www.math.psu.edu/UG/
If you have a conflict with either of the midterm examinations, an early conflict is given from 5:05 - 6:20 PM on the date of the examination. In addition, a late make-up examination is offered several days later from 6:30 - 7:45 PM. Exam 1 late makeup is Wed. Feb 26th: 6:30-7:45PM and Exam II late makeup is Thursday, Mar. 27th, 6:30-7:45PM.
Only students with official University conflicts, or a valid, documented excuse, such as illness, will be permitted to schedule conflict or late make-up examinations. Personal business such as travel, employment, weddings, graduations or attendance at public events such as concerts, sporting events, etc are not valid excuses.
Students are responsible for requesting permission from the instructor at least three days before the regularly scheduled examination, except in emergency circumstances, and for enrolling in these exams at the Calculus Office, 108 Whitmore Lab
The date and time of the final examination will be announced by the University Registrar midway through the semester. The final examination may be scheduled at any time during the Finals period so please do not plan on leaving until after the last day of Finals week which is Friday, May 9th.
Conflict Final Examinations
There are two types of conflict examinations, direct and overload. Direct conflicts are two examinations scheduled at the same time. Students with a direct conflict should file for a conflict examination. Overload examinations are three or more examinations scheduled within a fifteen hour period, from the beginning of the first examination to the beginning of the third examination. Students may elect to take the three or more examinations on the same day if they wish.
Students may file for direct and overload conflict examinations at the Registrar's office during the period from Mar. 17 to Apr. 4th.
Late-Drop
Students may add/drop a course without academic penalty within the first ten calendar days of the semester. A student may late drop a course within the first twelve weeks of the semester but accrues late drop credits equal to the number of credits in the dropped course. A baccalaureate student is limited to 16 late drop credits. The late drop deadline for this Semester is Friday, Apr. 11th.

Tutors and Math Center
If you need extra help (paid) tutors, a list is maintained in the Mathematics Department Undergraduate Office in room 107 Whitmore Lab. It is available on-line at . It is also available through the Undergraduate Studies HomePage at http://www.math.psu.edu/UG/. This is a good source for general information about undergraduate mathematics as well as information on evening exam schedules, office hours for instructors, sample exams, and so on.
The Mathematics Department also has a free tutorial program, the Sperling-Cohen Tutoring Program, for a limited number of students in Math 140 and 141. More information on this program is available at http://www.math.psu.edu/UG/.
In addition, there is free help available at the Math Center located in 220 Boucke Building, telephone 865-1841. A brief description of the Math Center is available in the aforementioned Undergraduate Handbook.
Ethics
"Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to cheating, plagiarism, facilitating acts of academic dishonesty by others, unauthorized prior possession of examinations, submitting work of another person or work previously used without informing the instructor, or tampering with the academic work of other students. A student charged with academic dishonesty will be given oral or written notice by the instructor."
"If students believe they have been falsely accused, they should seek redress through informal discussions with the instructor, department head, dean or campus executive officer. If the instructor believes that the infraction is sufficiently serious to warrant the referral of the case to the Office of Conduct Standards or if the instructor will award a final grade of F in the course because of the infraction, the student and faculty will be afforded formal due process procedure."
If you have difficulties with the course
If you experience difficulties with this course please consult your instructor or you may consult other instructors in the course. If your problems are other than with the material in the course, please contact the coordinator of the course, Prof. Donald Rung, whose address is given below.
