Dr. Brundage will delete the email and you won't get an answer (this dead silence is a clue that the answer is out there, so you should go find it. Also, now that you know this you don't need to be mad when I don't email you back. Problem fixed! Maybe).

Why do you have to take this quiz? And why do I expect you to check the FAQs, the announcements, the syllabus, your email, or any of your other resources before contacting me?

Because there are hundreds of students in this class, and all of the straight forward answers to your questions are already found elsewhere. I want you to get to know where to find these answers for yourself. This quiz includes all of the questions people have asked me multiple times in previous semesters, and now I want to make sure you know the answers. This frees me up for when you don't understand a major concept--I can actually go through the concept with you instead of reminding you about due dates!
