As in COMP 321, all students will be given 3 slip days to use throughout the semester. When you use a slip day, you will receive up to 24 additional hours to complete the assignment. You may use these slip days in any way you see fit (3 days on one assignment, 1 day each on 3 assignments, etc.). The only requirement for use of your slip days is that you e-mail the instructors prior to the time the assignment is due. On group projects, each student in the group must use a slip day in order to extend the deadline for the assignment. When slip days are used, you should clearly indicate so at the beginning of the assignment writeup. Other than slip days, no extensions will be given unless there are exceptional circumstances (such as severe sickness, not because you have too much other work). Such extensions must be requested and approved by the instructor (via e-mail, phone, or in person) before the due date for the assignment. Last minute requests are likely to be denied.
