This option is only allowed when I approve the absence. Homework will be assigned the class before it is due and collected at the beginning of class. Homework turned in after the collection time is considered late. It is your responsibility to find out if you missed a homework assignment and to make arrangements to get the homework. There is no makeup for missed homework.
Attendance is highly recommended.
While there are no explicit penalties for missing class, absenteeism has a negative effect on test grades. Students who will miss a test due to observation of a major religious day must provide notice by the second class meeting. Selling notes or tapes of class lectures is not permissible.
