Any emergency can be called in to me at Ext. 7590. No student will be allowed to make up any exam or submit any late assignment who has not followed this procedure. Obviously, extraordinary extenuating circumstances will not be overlooked. Students should also note that, because of the special nature of this course, with its focus on spoken French, it will be for the most part quite simply impossible to adequately make up any classwork missed during an absence. Any make-up of exams and any delayed submission of a written assignment must be resolved as soon as possible, usually within a week after the original date.
All assignments are due on the dates indicated in the course calendar.
In addition to a number of quizzes and homework assignments, there will be both a mid-semester and a final examination. All written work is to be done in ink. Students should take special note that of the fact that, because of the nature of this course, they will be expected to prepare materials for and to participate in a wide range of activities emphasizing spoken French. A personal tape recorder is strongly recommended. This course requires a good deal of sustained, concentrated effort, and it assumes a serious commitment to the study of French on the part of each student.
