Students are expected to attend
all courses and course activities for which they are registered. Any class meeting
missed, regardless of cause, reduces the opportunity of learning and may adversely affect a student’s achievement in
the course. Students are required to attend at least 90% of the class meetings
in order to receive credit for the course. (This means that if a class meets
twice a week, a student can only miss THREE classes. If a class meets once a
week, a student can only miss ONE AND A HALF classes.) An accurate record of
attendance will be kept for each course. If a student misses one-third or more
of a class session, the student will be counted absent. Three tardies will count
as one absence. Leaving early is the same as being tardy. Regardless of grades, if a student misses more than 10% of the class meetings, he or she may receive an
N (Not Passing), which counts as an attempt. Students who are unable to attend
class should contact the instructor as soon as possible, before the class meeting, in order to be eligible to turn in late
work.
