Each essay is due no later than 2 class sessions after being viewed. For example if we see a video on Monday, the essay is due Thursday of that week. Essays turned in late will NOT be accepted. I rarely give incompletes. I will take attendance and allow it to influence your grade.
Regular attendance means NO unauthorized or unexcused absences.
The only authorized reasons for missing class are illness, a death in the family, or a university related trip. Please call me prior to class if you must miss for one of these reasons.
