Authorization to share student work

Any student work made accessible on this site has been shared under the voluntary, written authorization of the students involved. For each project or assignment, students have the choice to publish their work publicly, to share their work only with members of the UNC community (in which case their content has been ONYEN-restricted), to share their work only with their classmates (in which case their content has been password-protected), or to not share their work at all, except with their instructor (in which case that project does not appear on this website). All students in the class have signed a pledge not to share the class password or any password-protected content with anyone outside of their specific class section. All students understand that they have the right to withdraw or alter the terms of this authorization to share their work at any time.

Attached documents

To protect against the potential theft of or editing of all documents that have been attached to this site and in order to maintain a consistency of formatting for all attached documents, most documents have first been converted into .pdf format and then attached or uploaded. I hope this does not cause any readers any inconvenience. Adobe Reader is the best program for viewing .pdf files. To download the latest version of Adobe Reader for free, ​click here.
