Assignments are due on the date given.
There will be a one-week grace period on all assignments as everyone has adult responsibilities and obligations. Grades on assignments turned in after the grace period will be significantly reduced. Assignments which have not been turned in by the final class will be counted as zero. Incompletes must be removed by the end of the subsequent semester. Teacher candidates requesting Incompletes must make arrangements with the instructor and the Dean.
