If you are an entering student, welcome to Southeastern. If you are a returning student, I hope your last semester was a productive one and welcome back. In either case, the main objective of the Department of Developmental Education is to facilitate your success in your developmental courses and, ultimately, your success in obtaining an education that will enable you to achieve your career and life goals.
Employers identify the importance of career readiness which reaches beyond course content.
In the business world, qualified employees with poor attendance are often replaced by qualified employees who regularly get to work and are on time. Thus, class attendance and performance support your success both at Southeastern and in the work place. Remain in class for the entire scheduled period. The number of allowable absences in a developmental course , for any reason , is equivalent to a week's attendance. Students who exceed this number will be informed by the instructor to submit to the instructor a written appeal with documentation for each absence within one week of notification.
