However, it must still be completed to receive a final grade. The instructor retains the privilege of making periodic changes in this syllabus throughout the semester, and the dropping of a student from the course due to excessive absenteeism, improper conduct, or other just cause. If there should be an adjustment in the syllabus in class and you are not present, it is your responsibility to learn about the change from fellow classmates. Again, get the information from your colleagues. Should an announced or unannounced classroom exercise be missed, it will not be possible to make it up since it is an on-going class experience that has already taken place.
Points are simply forfeited.
Course assignments, written and non-written, will be described fully in additional handouts. All text, lecture, and classroom activity is fair game for tests. I will not respond to questions about what is written clearly on the syllabus. However, I am more than happy to clarify ambiguity or respond to issues I may have missed in this document. I will be available as noted on the first page of the syllabus.
