Grades
The
syllabus states that you need at least a 60%
in both lecture and lab
in order to pass the course
and you can not miss 3 or more labs. If either of these
conditions is not
met, then it is an automatic failure for the course.
Grades are posted by
the last 5 digits of your WSU ID number in numerical order. Final
exam
scores are recorded but not labs or Final Course score. I will try
to have
the final grades posted by Friday evening.

Project 1 – Photo Project
Much of geology is
about making observations and
then deducing what happened. The idea is to have you apply what you
have
learned in this course. So go out and actively look at your
surroundings,
take photographs, identify structures and processes, and then make
interpretations of what has happened in the past. The topics are not
limited to
lecture or lab. You are encouraged to work on the project early
and talk
with your TA or myself about your photos. You may use photos you have
taken
from previous trips as long as you make arrangements ahead of
time.
Internet photos passed off as your own will substantially reduce your
score
(i.e. a zero).
