Requirements and Course Policies:
· Since French 875 is a discussion class, regular attendance, thorough preparation and active participation are
essential. Please arrive on time and plan to stay until the end of class. Do not schedule medical appointments or
job interviews during class time. If the number of unexcused absences exceeds one, the student’s final
participation grade will be lowered ten points for each absence.
· Students who know they cannot attend class on a given day should be sure to give the instructor advance
notice. Furthermore, students who have missed class are responsible for contacting a classmate to find out
what was covered and what homework was assigned (phone/e-mail lists will be distributed early in the
semester for this purpose; homework will be posted the day after class on Sakai).
· Please DO NOT SKIP CLASS or come late just because an assignment is not ready!!! If you are having
exceptional difficulties completing it (computer problems, no time to proofread, etc.) AND you notify me of
this in class, you may put it under my office door the day after it is due. Please note that I do not accept
assignments sent as e-mail attachments.
· Written work for the course must be word-processed, double-spaced, computer spell-checked, and thoroughly
proofread. Programs with French accents and French spell-checkers are available at the Foreign Language
Media Center, in the basement of Jastak-Burgess Hall. Do not depend solely upon grammar-checkers, or even
the required spell-checker, as they can be unreliable. No credit will be given for work that has not been
carefully proofread.
· Since e-mail will be used for course announcements, all students are required to activate their university e-mail
accounts if they have not already done so, and to check their mail regularly. If you do not normally use your
udel.edu address, please arrange to have your university mail forwarded to the account you are using.
IMPORTANT: In accordance with University and departmental policy, academic dishonesty including
plagiarism will result in an F for the course and a permanent stain on your academic record. In your writing, it
is absolutely essential that you make it clear where your ideas end and those of another author begin. I have
strict guidelines for peer-editing: please check with me before asking someone else to correct your work. The
use of online translators for anything beyond an occasional word or two constitutes plagiarism and is strictly
prohibited: use your dictionary. If you have any questions about documenting your sources, including online
sources, please consult the MLA guidelines (available at
http://www.english.udel.edu/wc/student/handouts/index.html), and see me with any questions.
