Talking during the delivery of a lecture is impolite and
not acceptable – even if you do not want to listen.
Lecture theatre acoustics mean that even whispering is
audible at quite a distance.
Disruptive behaviour and talking by students during
lectures will not be tolerated. Offenders will be
instructed to leave and not return.
This applies to ALL lectures, especially those where a
guest lecturer is presenting.
Active mobile phones will not be tolerated in any classes.
Mobile telephones should be switched off and put away,
students should not make or answer calls or send text
messages throughout a lecture, tutorial, workshop or
practical class.
Offending students will be instructed to leave the class
and not return.
