Points on the Quiz

I am not sure how this happened, but it looks like the second quiz is giving 100 points maximum, when it should be 50 points maximum.  Given our discussion in class about how students react to changing the means on exams, this is very unfortunate.  However, the Syllabus clearly says that the first and second quiz are each worth 5% of the grade.  So out of 1000 points they each should give 50 points. 

After the quiz is over I will adjust the scores so that you get the intended amount of points based on the questions you have answered correctly.  I'm sorry for this error.  Unfortunately, it is the type of bonehead play I am prone to make.
