Any questions about course content should be directed to the faculty member teaching the course. The teaching faculty have an obligation to meet their classes or make adequate arrangements for notifying students if there is a need for a last-minute change. It is expected that all students will attend all class sessions, they will be in their seats ready to listen when the class begins, and they will be attentive to the person speaking in the class. The purpose of holding a class session is to allow the faculty to simultaneously communicate with all students. If students expect to miss a class session, it is expected they will notify the faculty member prior to the class session, preferably via e-mail.
Students are responsible for all course content covered, even when they miss a class session.
In order to stay current on the class content, students who need to miss a class session may ask one or two other students for copies of their notes from the missed class. Just as it is expected on a job that the employee will come to work, it is expected in courses that students will come to class. Repeated and frequent absence will have a negative effect on the student's learning and course grade. All papers are to be typed, unless the faculty member explicitly states otherwise. In order to apply evaluation standards equally to all students, all assignments are to be turned in on time.
