Please see your syllabus for the assignment schedule. Late papers will not be accepted. Your name should appear in the top corner of the first page along with the date, assignment number, and my name. All essays should have titles, and all essays should be documented in proper MLA style. All papers should also have a works cited page.
Attendance is mandatory.
Departmental policy states that more than three absences will result in a lowering of your final grade by one-third of a letter grade for each class missed. If you accumulate more than five absences, you will fail the course. You will not be permitted to make up any in-class graded work that you miss, and you are responsible for obtaining assignments and for ensuring that your work is turned in on time. Please notify me in advance if you are unable to attend a class for any reason. Arriving more than ten minutes late for a class counts as half an absence.
