Recitations
Friday 2-3 PM ; 3-4PM; 4-5PM Recitation: you are required to enroll in the recitation section. The recitation sections will be utilized for development and elaboration of basic concepts developed in lecture through the use of animation and molecular modeling, in addition to providing an interactive forum for addressing student questions about lecture material, assigned readings and problem sets. Attendance at the assigned recitation section is must and you are strongly encouraged to take advantage of this resource.

Grade Policy
Exams, Grading & Regrading: there will be four exams and one cumulative final. There are no re-exams and You are not allowed to drop any exam ( We drop the lowest...skipping any exam is not allowed). However, in case of illness, etc. with an appropriate excuse, given before rather than after the exam, a student may be allowed to miss and reschedule one exam. Re-grading must be done within two days from the time the exam is returned. Questions must be directed to the instructor/grader in writing. You must not re-write on your exam in any fashion until after it has been regraded. Drops, Withdrawals, or Incompletes: the deadlines for dropping or withdrawing must be rigorously observed. Final grades: Final exams are scheduled by the Registrars office. Students missing a final examination must obtain permission to take the make-up exam
Course policies:
Prerequisites, withdrawals and incompletes To be enrolled in this course, you must have passed CHM151/3, 152/4 and CHM251 (or the equivalent at another school) with a grade of C- or better. The last day to withdraw from this class and receive a grade of W is Friday, April 8th, so be sure to check on your average prior to then. Only students who are passing the course at the time of the final exam may request an incomplete (I). An incomplete will only be given under exceptional circumstances and if requested within 48 hours after the final exam. Failing the final will not be considered an acceptable reason to request an incomplete. Academic Dishonesty: Cheating in any form will not be tolerated. Anyone suspected by me of cheating will receive no credit for that assignment. For more information on what constitutes academic dishonesty consult the general catalog, p. 52, under Academic Ethical Standards. Hour exams in this class are to be entirely individual effort, no collaboration, no unauthorized notes or supple-mentary materials allowed. Collaboration and use of notes will be allowed on some quizzes.
Classroom policies:
Courtesy: Turn off your cell phone ringer during class time. Talking on the phone is not allowed in class. Phones must be off during exams unless you have an emergency situation. If you must make/answer a call or visit the rest room, please leave the room quietly. Its OK to bring food/drink to class as long as you take your trash with you when you leave. Please refrain from idle chit-chat; it detracts from others learning and is discouraged. Anyone who disrupts class or exhibits discourteous behavior may be asked to leave. No texting in class. Please do the mature thing and consider how your actions affect those around you.
Warning!
Organic Chemistry is difficult and challenging! Memorization alone does not help! Body of knowledge + application of theory = Success How to succeed? 1. read the text before lecture, and come prepared. 2. listen carefully to lectures 3. read the text (take notes) 4. do the homework (twice...?) 5. review Do not blame others for a bad grade. It is not an easy course! This is not a simple GPA boost course!
Mind is Blank
Irritable
Disgusted
Additional Hints
1) Attend the Lectures; Understanding concepts is essential 2) Keep up with the material; Relatively low factual content 3) Review and rewrite your lecture notes after every lecture 4) Prepare flash cards for key concepts and reactions/mechanisms 5) Form study groups , but try not to depend on others 6) Solve problems at the end of the chapter that correspond to the lecture material 7) Don't cram for exams; Value of the subject lies in application of concepts (problem solving) 8) Lectures: presentation of key facts and concepts only! 9) The average student should spend about eleven hours per week studying for this course (for example, one hour each weeknight, three hours each Saturday, and three hours each Sunday). But do not force 11hrs on a single day. Daily reading is indispensable for the success HOW TO STUDY ORGANIC CHEMISTRY: Check it out at http://chemistry.umeche.maine.edu/CHY251/howto.html
GOOD LUCK!
Organic Chemistry may be the best Liberal Arts class you will ever take!!
"It is not so very important for a person to learn facts, for that he doesn't really need a college education, for he can learn them from books. The value of an education in a liberal arts college is not the learning of many facts but the training of the mind to think, something that cannot be learned from books." Albert Einstein
