Any scholar's unable to meet due dates should drop the course and take it at a later date. A grade of incomplete will not be awarded except under extenuating circumstances. To request an incomplete, the scholar must have been in class 80 percent of the time and completed 80 percent of the course work with a minimum grade of 91 percent. Extra credit will be awarded to scholars who request it, however, extra credit is not available to make up points for work turned in late. The maximum extra credit available is worth up to 100 points and can increase the scholar's grade one full grade point.
Extra credit is due no later than the ninth regularly schedule class period.
It is the scholar's responsibility to contact the instructor to request and make arrangements for extra credit. All required information will be presented on-line in the Blackboard virtual classroom. Additional resources should be obtained by using the Internet. Scholars are encouraged to explore the links provided in the syllabus and on the instructor's home page. However, for scholars who prefer written material, many publications are available which discuss the course topics.
