If you do have a legitimate reason to miss class, I will excuse you, and the absence will not count against you so long as you responsibly make up the work. Note that scheduling conflicts, travel plans, and sleeping through alarms are not legitimate reasons for missing class. If a student misses 3 classes without excuse, I will begin to deduct two points from the class participation grade for each absence. Whether you have a legitimate reason or not for missing class, you are responsible for whatever we covered during that session and for being prepared for the next one. Be on time.
Assignments are due on the assigned due dates.
If you are having trouble meeting a deadline, please contact me beforehand . Otherwise, I will deduct one letter grade per class period after the due date. No work more than a week late will be accepted. Do your own work. Plagiarism is against UConn policy.
