Instructors must clearly inform the students, in writing, the attendance policy for each course and the consequences of poor attendance. For more information on the attendance policy, refer to the Resource Guide . Course Syllabus Information regarding reasonable accommodations and academic adjustments for students with disabilities should be included in course outlines for each class at the beginning of each semester. If you have a physical or mental limitation that requires an academic adjustment or an accommodation, please arrange a meeting with me at your earliest convenience. In addition to including the statement from the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 on the course syllabus, it would be helpful to read it to students during your first class meeting.
Handbooks are available to assist students and faculty.
Faculty should set guidelines to supplement the existing university policies that address student conduct in the classroom . For additional information and a set of university guidelines, see Rules and Procedures . At the beginning of each course or program, students should be informed, preferably in writing, as to how they will be examined and how their performance will be evaluated. Prior to the final exam period, instructors receive computer prepared optical scan grade sheets through their departments. The faculty should return the completed grade sheets to the appropriate dean's office within 48 hours of the exam administration.
