Legacy Lectures
Every student is required to attend 4 out of class lectures. These will introduce students to the wider university community and makes links between this course and other academic undertakings. Some of these lectures may be offered by the Honors Program while others will be sponsored by other departments on campus.
Outside lectures will be announced when they become available. However, students may also attend lectures not specifically mentioned in class. If you have any questions about the applicability of lectures, please ask before you attend. Students are advised to not put lecture attendance off until late in the semester.
Lectures
are worth 10% of your final grade. Failure to attend these lectures
automatically disqualifies you from earning an "A" in this course.
Attendance of 4 lectures (and completion of a short written report for
each--see below) is an all or nothing proposition. If you attend four and
complete four reports, you are awarded 100 points. If you fail to attend one or
more or fail to complete four reports, you are awarded no points.
