12. Course Outcome Competencies:
Upon completion of this course the student should be able to:
• Discuss the nature of staffing to include models and strategies.
• Explain aspects of support activities; legal compliance, planning, job analysis, and rewards.
• Discuss recruitment from internal and external environment perspectives.
• Explain aspects of selection.
• Discuss the employment activity to include decision making and final selection.
• Explain aspects of the staffing system and retention.
13. Attendance Requirements: Attendance is very important to your success in this class. Exams may be made
up (with a penalty of 10% per day for lateness), but no other aspect of this course may be made up at a later
date. Meeting deadlines is very important. In the event of a missed assignment or activity, it is the student’s
responsibility to contact the instructor. Absences will affect your grade. Missing more than 25% of the classes
will result in a failing grade for the course. Missing an hour or more of a class is counted as an absence.
Participation in online portions counts as an equal part of the attendance component. Missing online
assignments is the same as missing face-to-face classes.
14. Statement on Plagiarism and Academic Dishonesty: Wayland Baptist University observes a zero
tolerance policy regarding academic dishonesty. Per university policy as described in the academic
catalog, all cases of academic dishonesty will be reported and second offenses will result in
suspension from the university.
15. Disability Statement: “In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), it is the
policy of Wayland Baptist University that no otherwise qualified person with a disability be excluded from
participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any educational program
or activity in the university. The Coordinator of Counseling Services serves as the coordinator of students
with a disability and should be contacted concerning accommodation requests at (806) 291- 3765.
Documentation of a disability must accompany any request for accommodations.”
16. Course Requirements and Grading Criteria:
Students shall have protection through orderly procedures against prejudices or capricious
academic evaluation. A student who believes that he or she has not been held to realistic
academic standards, just evaluation procedures, or appropriate grading, may appeal the final
grade given in the course by using the student grade appeal process described in the Academic
Catalog. Appeals may not be made for advanced placement examinations or course bypass
examinations. Appeals are limited to the final course grade, which may be upheld, raised, or
lowered at any stage of the appeal process. Any recommendation to lower a course grade must be
submitted through the Executive Vice President/Provost to the Faculty Assembly Grade Appeals
Committee for review and approval. The Faculty Assembly Grade Appeals Committee may
instruct that the course grade be upheld, raised, or lowered to a more proper evaluation.

18. Additional information as desired by the faculty member.
Class Participation: Class participation is a very important part of education. This class requires active
class participation. Many classes begin with a basic question that appears clear-cut, and the class
participation is what helps add to the complexity that is critical for solving problems and understanding
processes. Students are strongly encouraged to participate in class.
Other Important Information:
1. Homework is due by the beginning of each class.
2. Late homework will result in a lower grade.
3. Written work is graded on the basis of content first, but also on the quality of APA formatting, grammar and
punctuation.
4. All written assignments should be 12-point type, double-spaced, and using APA Manuscript Writing Style.
5. Questions concerning grades received should be resolved within one week after the assignment has been
returned.
6. Unless noted as a group assignment, all work should be original work of the individual student.
7. Students will need to use the Internet to access some assignments.
8. Cell phones and pagers must be placed on vibrate or silent mode.
9. Presentations of papers must be done on the assigned date with the class to receive credit.
10. Exams may be made up, but there is a 10% penalty for each day it is late.
11. Always contact the professor if you need assistance.
Article Presentations: In order to better understand and participate in the stages of the study of the
assigned material, students will be required to bring examples of relevant topics to class. The format for
the articles will be described in class, and when presented they will be graded based upon quality and
relevance to the topic being discussed. They may also be graded based upon the amount of class discussion
that ensues when the summary is presented. Length of the individual presentations will be discussed when
each assignment is made.
Term Paper: Students will complete one research paper for this class. The paper should be a minimum of
ten pages of content, excluding coversheet, abstract and references, and should utilize at least ten
references, five of them scholarly (journal articles, not just websites). Students will orally present a
summary of this paper to the class. Papers must utilize APA format. Topics for papers must also be preapproved by the professor. To avoid a 10% deduction, paper draft must be available by the ninth class
meeting to submit online to Safe Assignment. If Safe Assignment detects more than a 20% match of
previously written work, you must discuss with the instructor to get further instructions.
STATEMENTS:
Course Format: This course will be taught in a blended format, with the majority (over 51%) of the
contact hours occurring in class. There will also be Blackboard assignments and other activities outside the
classroom.
“Students are responsible for reading, understanding, obeying, and respecting all academic policies, with
added emphasis being placed upon academic progress policies, appearing in the Wayland Baptist
University Academic Catalog applicable to their curriculum and/or program of study.”
