Recitation guidelines

1. Recitation is optional and it is intended to clarify material presented in class, expand horizons, and stimulate curiosity
2. Recitation grade will be based on attendance. A = perfect attendance record. 1 absence = B, etc.  There will be an option to do extra work to make up for a missed recitation (with valid excuse).
