A free writing lab is available for students who have difficulty writing. I will also examine outlines, rough drafts, etc. as long as they are presented at least one week before the paper due date. Under normal circumstances, no late papers will be accepted. Some excellent articles have also appeared in less specialized journals such as Critical Inquiry, College English, American Literary History, and American Literature . The First Search internet resource available in the Library can also be helpful.
Many Web sites can provide information on Native writers in general and on specific authors.
Professors are no longer allowed to drop students for excessive absences. If you plan to withdraw from the course, you must follow University procedures. If you do not, you will receive an F for the semester. In the past I have had few problems with plagiarism or other forms of academic dishonesty. Instances of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism, will be turned over immediately to the office of the Associate Vice-President for Student Affairs.
