Students are expected to attend all classes. Lateness for class will not be tolerated and count as an absence. All foreseeable absences must be coordinated with your instructor in advance. University policy requires any student who misses three consecutive lessons, or missing more lessons that the instructor deems advisable, must be reported to the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Missing class without a valid excuse, due to circumstances within the student's control, will result in significant loss of class participation points.
Students are academically accountable for all material covered while absent.
Cadets are expected to adhere to proper military customs and courtesies. Cadets' conduct, bearing, preparedness, and attendance are part of their class participation evaluation. Disagreement and free expression of opinions is encouraged, but must be professional and courteous. To promote free expression, academic freedom and non-attribution will be observed. This means there will be no retribution for ideas or opinions expressed in class and that students may not attribute an idea or opinion to an individual outside the classroom without that person's consent.
