Both the student and the instructor should track absences. In class, students are required to actively participate by offering relevant comments when appropriate. Students will be expected to share ideas and writing, and to listen to other people's ideas and written work. Some of this will be done in small groups. I do not accept late assignments.
Papers are due at the beginning of class.
If a student is ill, the student may send a paper to me with another student, but it is still due at the beginning of class and the student will still be counted absent. All work submitted for this course must be your own and written exclusively for this course, with the exception of the major report, which may be turned in for another class if you get permission from the instructor. Details will be explained in class. If you have any questions regarding this policy please see me. The instructor will work with you and the staff of Disability Support Services to provide reasonable accommodations to ensure that you have a fair opportunity to perform and participate in class.
