Two copies of the final portfolio will be submitted, one to remain with the Composition Program, the other to be returned to the student. Your instructor may vary this schedule to accommodate the demands of your particular class, and additional or alternative readings may be provided. Reading assignments also will be based on the Resources section in A Sense of Place. No final exam in English 105 Grades determined by May 12 Attendance Writing courses require involvement and the incremental completion of assignments, which often involve other members of class. However, each student is accountable for all work missed because of absence.
Instructors are under no obligation to make special arrangements for students who have been absent.
Should the absence be unavoidable, it is the responsibility of the student to report the reason for his or her absence to the instructor. In the Composition Program, we have adopted an attendance policy that applies to all sections of ENG 105. We do recognize that emergencies and obligations may arise, and our goal for each student is the successful completion of this required course. However, your instructor has the authority to reduce your final course grade by one, two, or three grade levels if you have six, eight, and ten or more unexcused absences in a term. This formula is based on a four credit-hour course which meets four days a week.
