Fall Semester Assignment Due Dates

We will use the topographic maps listed below, 10 copies of which are located at the UWEC checkout counter in the library. Use the appropriate periodical titles for each map. Note that three "map" assignments do not use the topographic sheets in the library; use the appropriate sources.

Be sure that you have the map assignments completed by the dates listed and bring them to class on the due date. If you can't be in class on the due dates, give the instructor the assignments BEFORE class. We will correct most assignments in class. Late assignments are not accepted. To avoid late assignments, hand them in before the due date, if you can not be in class, or talk to me about why the assignments are late. This will significantly lower your map assignment average and therefore your overall grade. In other words, be timely, learn something, and don't miss assignments!

For the topographic map exercises, you will still need to use the paper maps on Reserve. Or if all fails, use these backup electronically scanned maps.
