Missing more than two times ordinarily means failure in the course. Each student has the duty to his or her peers to be prepared and to participate in class work. Thus each student is expected to read and to know the material for each class session and to participate actively in discussions. Two essays will be assigned by the humanities faculty. In order to pass the course, the student must complete and submit all required essays .
Final copies are due on the dates noted in the class assignment schedule.
Each of these essays should focus on at least one of the texts studied during the class periods immediately preceding the due date of the paper. The student must have his or her thesis statement approved by section faculty prior to writing the essay. Papers should be from three to five pages. Late papers will be severely penalized if accepted at all. All papers must be returned to the faculty tutor.
