The image is a photograph of a binder with a list of class rules written on it. The list is written in black text on a white background and is divided into two columns. The first column is titled "Class Rules" and the second column is labeled "If I cannot explain the necessity for any rule I will eliminate the rule."

The list includes:

- Homework must be done in pencil and on standard (8 and 1/2" by 11")
- Pencils must be put away while we are going over homework
- Do not put two assignments on the same paper
- Please do not disturb anything on the counter unless we are doing a lab
-Please raise your hand and ask your questions loud enough for me to hear
- If you don't drink in class
- No drinking (other than water)

There is also a note on the right side of the binder that reads "No happy thoughts in class...ok...you can have happy thoughts. If you miss more than one day of instruction the last week before a test, you may ask to take a test at a later date

At the bottom of the image, there is a note that says "If you know you are going to be absent on a test day make sure you talk to me well ahead of time."
