Specific sanctions for academic dishonesty are outlined in SWTexan . Students are full partners in fostering a classroom environment which is conducive to learning. In order to assure that all students have the opportunity to gain from time spent in class, unless otherwise approved by the instructor, students are prohibited from engaging in any form of behavior that detracts from the learning experience of fellow students. Inappropriate behavior in the classroom may result in a request for the offending student to leave class. SWT is dedicated to providing these students with necessary academic adjustments and auxiliary aids to facilitate their participation and performance in the classroom.
Attendance is required.
As an incentive, a 3-point bonus will be added to the final grade of each student with less than 3 unexcused absences. Students who accumulate more than 5 unexcused absences will have one point deducted from their final grade for each absence. Students are expected to be present during the entire class. Attendance may be taken at different times each class. Failure to be present during any attendance check constitutes an absence.
