Return of tests

The graded tests will be returned in class, usually during the week following the date of the test. For the next ten days, any answer books not picked up in class can be picked up from Gates Hall 216, from 12:00 to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, except during university breaks. You will need your Cornell ID and you will not be able to pick up an assignment for another student.

Regrade requests

If you think there is a grading error, you may request a regrade. To request a regrade, contact me after class, come to my office hours, or send me email.
