In order to avoid distracting other students, any student (without prior accommodation) who uses a computing device with a screen that does not lie flat on table/lap must sit in the back half of the lecture hall. Some examples:

• If you are using a tablet to take notes and the tablet lies flat on a table, you can sit wherever you want.
• If you are using a laptop, you must sit in the back half of the room.
• If you are using a smartphone and you leave it on the desk, you can sit wherever you want. But if you use your smartphone and it does not lie flat, you must sit in the back of the room.

If you require an accommodation with regards to this policy, please contact the instructors.
