We will discuss this in more detail later in the term. Homework is due on the date assigned and will not be accepted late except for excused absences. In that case, the homework must be turned in on the day you return to college. A one grade deduction will be made automatically. There will be no exception to this policy.
All absences count.
A student who misses 4 or more classes will automatically fail the course. Once the roll has been taken and the door to the classroom is closed, you will be considered late. Do not enter the room until the door is opened for the first break. Most of our time in class will be dedicated to discussion of the texts. Early in the semester, class time will also be dedicated to writing exercises.
