Credit hour expectations: This course is a 4-credit course, which means that students are expected to do at a minimum 12.5 hours of course-related work each week of the semester. This includes work done completing assigned readings, studying for tests and examinations, completing assignments, and other course-related tasks. Although CHEM231 is a lecture-only course you can count on the course taking as many hours per week as your introductory chemistry courses. Course schedule is available below as well as on MyCourses Calendar.

CHEM 231 and 335 together satisfy L requirement: CHEM 231 is not an L course. CHEM 335 is an L course but to count as such, it must be in conjunction with CHEM 231 credit. (The two courses do not have to be taken concurrently but both must be taken to earn the overall L designation). Communication: If you want to get a hold of us, email is the best method. We are often in and out of our offices so just stopping by our offices to chat, or phoning may not be nearly as fruitful as sending an email. Before emailing about a general course question, consult the syllabus and the Frequently asked questions. Allow 24 hours for us to get back to your emails, although we often answer right away. Remember that when you write emails to your professors that you should use a professional style and efficiently communicate your question or problem. This is especially true the weekend before exams. We do not conduct office hours by email. If you must be away from school for an extended period for reasons outside your control, please contact your classroom instructor by email. Office-hours vs appointments: • Office hours are for working on course material. We will answer any student questions about course material and we also do practice problems. • Appointments are for discussing issues that are not directly related to course content. Be mindful that these appointments are not and cannot be one-on-one tutoring sessions. Classroom etiquette: We have an impact on our surroundings. Respect your classmates, teaching assistants and instructors. • Cell phone ringers off • No conversations in class except during problem solving. If you persist in having conversations, you will be asked to leave the lecture. • If you must surf the internet during class, sit toward the back of the room to distract fewer people • Please address your instructors as Dr. Tong or Dr. Kissling (or Dr. K). To refer to your professors in a more casual manner without invitation to do so is memorably disrespectful. Online etiquette: You may occasionally do interactive work with your colleagues in the class, online communication presents its own challenges that are covered in Rules of Netiquette under the syllabus tab in MyCourses.

Chosen Names and Personal Pronouns: Everyone has the right to be addressed by the name and pronouns that correspond to their gender identity, including non-binary pronouns, for example: they/them/theirs, ze/zir/zirs, etc. Rosters do not list gender or pronouns so you may, if you like, indicate the pronouns you use so that we don't make assumptions based on your name and/or appearance/self-presentation (you are not obligated to do so). If you use a chosen name, please let us know. Chosen names and pronouns are to be respected at all times in the classroom. Mistakes in addressing one another may happen, so we encourage an environment of openness to correction and learning. We will not however, tolerate repeated comments which disrespect or antagonize students who have indicated pronouns or a chosen name. Chosen name and personal pronouns may evolve over time, so if at any point during the semester you would like to be addressed differently, please let us know. SUPPORT for Students If you are experiencing undue personal or academic stress at any time during the semester or need to talk with someone about a personal problem or situation, we encourage you to seek support as soon as possible. We are available to talk with you about stresses related to your work in my class. Additionally, I can assist you in reaching out to any one of a wide range of campus resources, including: 1. Dean of Students Office: 607-777-2804 2. Decker Student Health Services Center: 607-777-2221 3. University Police: On campus emergency, 911 4. University Counseling Center: 607-777-2772 5. Interpersonal Violence Prevention: 607-777-3062 6. Harpur Advising: 607-777-6305 7. Office of International Student & Scholar Services: 607-777-2510 Disability-related Equal Access Accommodations Students wishing to request academic accommodations to insure their equitable access and participation in this course should notify the instructor as soon as they are aware of their need for such arrangements. Authorizations from Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) are generally required. We encourage you to contact SSD at (607) 777-2686 (for voice and TTY) to schedule an appointment with the Director or Learning Disabilities Specialist. The SSD website (www.binghamton.edu/ssd) includes information regarding their Disability Documentation Guidelines. The office is located in UU – 119. University Counseling Center At some point during their college experience, students may encounter personal, social, or developmental issues that call for assistance beyond the advice provided by friends and family. That’s where the University Counseling Center (UCC) can help. The UCC provides a variety of free and confidential counseling services delivered by professional counselors. All currently enrolled Binghamton University undergraduate students, graduate students and affiliated entities are eligible to receive these services free of charge. Services and programs available through the center include individual and group counseling, consultation, referral, and psychoeducational programs. For more information or to make an appointment, visit https://www.binghamton.edu/counseling. Diminished mental health, including significant stress, mood changes, excessive worry, or problems with eating and/or sleeping can interfere with optimal academic performance. The source of symptoms might be largely related to your course work; if so, we invite you to speak with either one of us (or your other professors) directly. However, problems with relationships, family worries, loss, or a personal struggle or crisis can also contribute to decreased academic performance; and may require additional professional support. Binghamton University provides a variety of support resources: The Dean of Students Office and University Counseling Center offer coaching on ways to reduce the impact to your grades. Both resources can help you manage personal challenges that impact your well-being or ability to thrive at Binghamton University. Accessing them, especially early on, as symptoms develop, can help support your academic success as a University student.

In the event your professors feel you could benefit from such support, we will express our concerns (and the reasons for them) to you and remind you of our resources. While we do not need to know the details of what is going on for you, your ability to share some of your situation with either of us will help us connect you with the appropriate support. Title IX In the event that you choose to write or speak about experiencing or surviving sexual violence, including sexual harassment, dating and domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and rape, please keep in mind that federal and state laws require that, as your instructors, we notify the Title IX Coordinator, Andrew Baker. He will contact you and provide you with on and off campus resources and discuss your options with you. If you would like to disclose your experience confidentially, you can contact University Counseling Center, Decker Student Health Services, Harpur’s Ferry, Ombudsman, or Campus Ministry. For more information, please go to https://www.binghamton.edu/ivp/ or https://www.binghamton.edu/rmac/title-ix/.

Text: 607-205-8173; Call: 607-777-2345; Email: [email protected] http://www.binghamton.edu/libraries Academic Integrity Sample statement: Binghamton University provides explicit guidelines in the Student Academic Honesty Code (see the University Bulletin - Academic Policies and Procedures for All Students). Unless specified otherwise in the syllabus, I expect the work you submit for grading to be yours and yours alone. Not acknowledging another's work with proper references, taking credit for someone else's work, letting your work appear in another student's paper, or fabricating "results" are grounds for failing the assignment and/or the course. If you have any questions about what constitutes plagiarism or cheating, please ask me. Closed resource: (individual quizzes, and all other quizzes and examinations fall under ‘examinations’ as far as AHC is concerned: Cheating on Examinations • Giving or receiving unauthorized help before, during or after an examination. Examples include: • unauthorized collaboration of any sort during an examination; • reading of an examination before it has been given; • unauthorized use of notes, books, tapes, computers or other aids during an examination; • allowing another person to take an examination in one’s place; • looking at someone else’s examination during the examination period; • allowing another person to use one’s own examination during the examination period; • passing examination information to students who have not yet taken the examination. Since you can request re-grade/ re-add/ and re-data entry the following elements of the code also apply:

Fabrication and Misrepresentation Misrepresenting or fabricating material, including misleading citation of sources as well as falsified or fabricated data or results from experiments or other analyses. Misrepresenting facts related to academic performance, including the justification of absences, late assignments and other activities. Forgery Imitating another person’s signature on academic documents (for example, an academic advising form or one’s own paper that is signed with respect to the time of submission) or other official documents that influence academic credit (for example, a medical form submitted in support of taking a make-up examination). Sabotage Deliberately impairing, destroying, damaging or stealing another’s work or working material. Examples include destroying, stealing or damaging another’s laboratory experiment, computer program, term paper, examination or project; removing uncharged library materials with the effect that others cannot use them; defacing or damaging library materials with the effect that others cannot use them; hoarding or displacing materials within the library with the effect that others have undue difficulty using them; interfering with the operation of a computer system so it has an adverse effect on the academic performance of others. Bribery Offering or receiving any service or article with the purpose or effect of receiving a grade or other academic benefit that was not earned on the merits of the academic work. It is very painful to see students throw away their academic careers and their opportunity to become a medical or legal professional by decisions made in the heat of the moment. If you are caught cheating procedures described in the academic honesty code will be followed. DON’T CHEAT. The consequences are not worth it. Admonishment: Bright students can end up bombing organic chemistry-not because they are suddenly not bright, but because they have not allowed for the extra time that organic chemistry demands to do well. Though it does not have a laboratory component, many students spend more time on the class than they did for chemistry 108. Work steadily. When you study (close the FB, Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter), study with a goal in mind for no more than 2 hours at a time. If your study method is not working out, ask for and listen to advice. In organic chemistry I you are studying both for this course and for the foundation of organic II. Add/drop deadline: The Add/ Drop deadline is Wednesday September 5, 11:59 pm. If your initial schedule is overly ambitious, and you cannot change non-academic components in your schedule, then dropping a course is a sensible step. If you drop, do so many hours before the deadline and then check to make sure the change went through. Withdrawal deadline: The late withdrawal deadline is Tuesday October 30, 2018 at 4:30 pm. This is the same day as exam II. Exam II is after the deadline. A semester may get out of hand, either an illness or personal incident disrupts your studies for a portion of the semester, or maybe you realize that your credit hour-load was too ambitious. Withdrawing should be a strategicmove that can allow you to maintain a desired GPA by reducing work load. The University’s withdraw deadline is firm. Approximately 90 % of late withdraw requests are denied so, do not wait until the last minute, and check to make sure that the withdrawal went through. I do not have the power to allow you to late withdraw. I can approve your petition, but I am not the decision maker.
