If you are absent, you are responsible for obtaining information discussed in the class meetings. Consult the syllabus and find a colleague in class to keep you updated. More than two absences will result in your final grade being reduced by one full letter grade for each additional absence. Arrive to class on time, as we will start promptly. Two late appearances equal one absence and will affect your grade accordingly.
All work is due at the beginning of class time on the day indicated on the syllabus.
Please note that if you have not completed all the assignments, I cannot pass you for this course. I require you to provide quotations from the texts we read in class as support or counter-argument in each paper you submit. Any other texts you wish to consult must be cleared with me beforehand and properly cited. If I agree you may use quotations or facts from a website, you will print out the website you consulted and attach it to your essay. All work submitted in this course must be your own and be written exclusively for this course.
