Attendance is, of course, mandatory. Without everyone's participation our discussions will become useless. Each member of the class assumes a responsibility for every other member, therefore, it is vital to our success as a class that everyone comes regularly and prepared to work. Two absences during the term will be all I'll be able to overlook. Any more than that, without documented excuses, will directly affect your grade.
All assignments are due on the day that they are required.
If specific problems arise that make it impossible to deliver something to me on time, please let me know so that we can negotiate a solution.
