Experience indicates a clear connection between attendance and success in class.
The university's attendance policy and the policy for withdrawing from classes will be consistently followed. Attendance will be taken during every class period. Attendance and tardiness records may be used to determine final course grades in borderline cases. If you are unable to attend a class meeting, it is your responsibility to obtain lecture notes, problem solutions, announcement information, etc. from a classmate. My office hours are not intended for individual class sessions.
