Preparedness in class

You are EXPECTED to bring all your materials to class at the beginning of class.  Each time you forget and you need to go to your locker to get the material during class time, 0.5% will be deducted from your in-class score.

You should also only go to the washroom before/after class or during the 5-min. break period; unless there's an absolute, unexpected urgency, you will also get a 0.5% deduction each time you request to go to the washroom.
