After the 8 th absence, you will be dropped from the class unless there is some legitimate reason for missing excessively. Any time you miss more that two days at a time, contact your instructor to discuss your work. An absence for any reason is counted as an absence. Points may be given for days of attendance. You are responsible for signing the attendance roster each day of class or completing an assignment or quiz that will be collected for that date.
All exams are to be taken in class on the scheduled day.
If you are late for an exam, you will be given an assigned seat in the front to prevent disturbing other students in the class. Reasons for the absence will be discussed and the instructor has the option of providing a make-up exam or not. Documentation for absences from the exam will support justification for consideration of a make-up exam. Make-up exams may also be of a different formal than the original exam, i.e., short answer, essay format. Papers are due on the date they are assigned and will be collected at the beginning of the class period.
