Syllabus
Instructor: Timothy A. Wunder
Class Expectations:
1. I expect that you will read this syllabus and abide by the information in it.
Continuation in this class implies that you have read this syllabus and agree to the terms
within.
2. I expect that you will come to class prepared to discuss the material, which was
assigned in the schedule.
3. I expect academic integrity. Cheating on exams, plagiarism, or any other form of
academic dishonesty will be dealt with in the severest possible manner. It is the
philosophy of The University of Texas at Arlington that academic dishonesty is a
completely unacceptable mode of conduct and will not be tolerated in any form. All
persons involved in academic dishonesty will be disciplined in accordance with
University regulations and procedures. Discipline may include suspension or expulsion
from the University.
"Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not limited to cheating, plagiarism, collusion, the
submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to
another person, taking an examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair
advantage to a student or the attempt to commit such acts." (Regents Rules and
Regulations, Series 50101, Section 2.2)
4. I expect you to be here on exam days. The only excuse will be a prior arrangement
made with me or some written documentation dealing with the emergency.
5. All assignments are to be handed in by 11:00 pm of the day they are due. No
electronic copies will be accepted. Twenty percent of the value of the assignment will be
deducted for every day the assignment is late.
6. You should expect me to be prepared for the class.
7. You should expect to gain a basic understanding of elementary models of the microeconomy as well as an understanding theoretical reasoning behind firm and individual
behavior.

I reserve the right to lower these boundaries but I will never raise them. Any disputes on
grading shall be brought to my attention within one week of having the item handed back
to the class. You may bring such disputes verbally or in written form.
As a faculty member, I am required by law to provide "reasonable accommodations" to
students with disabilities, so as not to discriminate on the basis of that disability. Student
responsibility primarily rests with informing faculty of their need for accommodation and
in providing authorized documentation through designated administrative channels.
Information regarding specific diagnostic criteria and policies for obtaining academic
accommodations can be found at www.uta.edu/disability. Also, you may visit the Office
for Students with Disabilities in room 102 of University Hall or call them at (817) 2723364.
