{\bf Course Outline:}
In this course we will learn about 
groups and related structures.

\bigskip

\noindent
{\bf Prerequisites:}
The equivalent
of Math 521 (Modern Algebra I).

\bigskip

\noindent
{\bf Homework and Exams:}
During the semester there will be 
regularly assigned homework, two in-class tests and
a final exam. Your course grade will be 
computed according to the following formula.
\[ {\bf Grade} = {\bf HW}(30\%) +
{\bf T1}(20\%) + 
{\bf T2}(20\%) + {\bf Final}(30\%).\]
Late homework will not be accepted.
However, your two lowest homework grades
will not be counted.

\bigskip

\noindent
{\bf Scoring:}
Written work will be judged on the basis of {completeness},
{legibility} and {correctness}. 
Strings of formulas without explanation will not be accepted. 
Paragraph organization (where appropriate), complete sentences 
and correct punctuation are expected.

{\bf Getting Help:}
Don't wait until it is too late if you need help. Ask questions!
I am available 
during the office hours listed above and also at many other times.  
If you can't see me during office hours,  then make an appointment 
with me to see me at a different time. I will also give short
answers to questions sent by email.
