Attendance Policy Students are responsible for material covered in class and for all assigned reading. Because much of this course involves oral work by students in class, attendance is especially important. Failure to attend when other students are giving reports will result in a failing mark for that exercise. Since this course only meets twice weekly, two absences are the maximum permitted. Repeated absence may make a student liable for withdrawal from the course with a failing grade.
