13. Attendance Requirements: Attendance is very important to your success in this class. Tests
may be made up (with a penalty of 20% 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 face-to-face 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.
All Wayland students are expected to attend every class meeting; the minimum percentage of class
participation required to avoid receiving a grade of “F” in the class is 75%. Students who miss the
first two class meetings without providing a written explanation to the instructor will be
automatically dropped from the roster as a “no-show.” Students who know in advance that they
will be absent the first two class meetings and who wish to remain in the class must inform the
instructor in order to discuss possible arrangements for making up absences.
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.

taught you.
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 at 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 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. Academic honesty is expected of all students. Plagiarism, cheating, and other acts that
lack academic honesty may result in a zero on the particular assignment.
8. Students will need to use the Internet to access some assignments.
9. Cell phones and pagers must be placed on vibrate or silent mode.
10. Presentations of papers must be done on the assigned date with the class to receive
credit.
11. Exams may be made up, but there is a 20-point penalty for each day it is late.
12. Please do not bring children to class.
13. Always contact the professor if you need assistance.
Article Presentations: In order to better understand and participate in the stages of the study of
marketing analysis, 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/Project: Students will complete one term paper for this class. The paper should be a
minimum of five pages of content, excluding coversheet, abstract and references, and should
utilize at least five references, all of them scholarly. Students will orally present a summary of this
paper to the class. Papers must utilize APA format. Topics for papers must also be pre-approved
by the professor. To avoid a 10-point deduction from your final grade in the course, completed
paper must be available by the ninth class meeting to submit online to Safe Assignment. If Safe
Assignment detects more than a 20% match, 10 points will be deducted from the paper grade for
every 10% over the 20% limit.
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.
“This class will adhere to zero tolerance for using someone else’s work as your own.”
“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.”
