Repeated late arrivals or early exits will be counted as absences. You are responsible for submitting every assignment on schedule. Although most of your work will be revised at least once, each step in the process is important. All deadlines will be enforced . If you fail to discipline yourself to complete each phase of the writing process on time, your final grade will be lowered.
Papers are due at the beginning of class on the assigned day.
Your absence when an assignment is made or when it is due is not a valid excuse for late work. Computer and printing problems are not acceptable excuses for late papers. If University classes are closed because of weather or road conditions, assignments due on the closure date will be due the next time the class meets. At that meeting, the assignments originally scheduled for the date will also be due. Students are required to use class assignments to develop a portfolio which contains finished texts, drafts, and an evaluation of their writing progress.
