Student groups will not be permitted to enter into partnerships with credit card solicitors. The purpose of classroom attendance is the interaction of the student with the professor, of the student with other students, and the communication of material. Therefore, every student has an obligation not only to himself but also to his professor and to his fellow students to attend class regularly. The members of Catawba s student body are looked upon as being sufficiently mature to meet the responsibility for punctual attendance at class. Whenever possible, students should make arrangements concerning absences ahead of time.
Faculty are under no obligation to allow or facilitate make-up work for any absences.
Students bear the full responsibility for making up missed work, material covered in classes missed, and learning of subsequent assignments. Students should remain in class for at least ten minutes after the class is scheduled to begin, after which, if the professor has not arrived or has not given word that she will be late in arriving, the students may leave. Students must register for their courses promptly at the time set for this purpose and should make certain that they are formally enrolled during the first days of classes. It shall be unlawful for any person to possess, or carry, whether openly or concealed, any gun, rifle, dynamite cartridge, bomb, grenade, mine, powerful explosive, bowie knife, dirk, dagger, slingshot, leaded cane, switchblade knife, blackjack, metal knuckles, or any other weapon of like kind, not used solely for instructional or school sanctioned ceremonial purposes, in any public or private school building or bus, or any public or private educational institution.
