Incompletes are possible for students who have been prevented by illness, family crisis, or other unusual circumstances from completing field requirements. A final note. Dr. Barbara White will speak to social work students 2 to 4 pm in the Carolan Room. Field hours for Spring semester must be completed by May 4. The nature of the learning experience is such that regular attendance and participation is essential.
Excessive absences can both impede learning and adversely affect the student's grade.
The instructor reserves the right to meet with any students whose absences are affecting their progress in class or to notify the Dean of Students Office regarding absences. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of class. If you are not present then, you will be marked absent. As social workers or other helping people, it is important that you be able to speak out to advocate for clients and to address issues. A silent worker can do little to impact on policy.
