Regular, prompt class attendance is required. It is your responsibility to sign the roll sheet every class meeting. There are no excused absences. Two absences constitute a drop in letter grade. Three times tardy is equal to one day absent.
Students are responsible for all that takes place in class even when absent.
In order to comply with assessment criteria for programs under the auspices of the State of Louisiana and of regional and national accrediting bodies, Our Lady of Holy Cross College requires a series of student outcome assessments throughout the various levels of the curriculum. The assessments are used along with other interpretive data to identify relative strengths and weaknesses in the educational programs so that Our Lady of Holy Cross College can continually improve. One form of assessment is conducted as each course is taught. A pre-test on the goals and general objectives of a course is administered no later than the third class meeting of the semester. The post-test is administered to students two weeks prior to the end of the course in order to provide ample time for faculty to give feed back to students prior to final examinations.
