Should the course director determine remediation is required, the remediation plan will be at the discretion of the

recommended that the elective be taken again in its entirety.
Attendance and Make-up Policies
Responsibilities and Expectation of Students
TAMHSC – COM student handbook states: Students who miss more than 20% of a 4th year elective for any
reason (2 weekdays during a two-week rotation or 4 weekdays for 4 week rotation) will require a
remediation plan. However because elective schedules often vary considerably from a standard academic
schedule, and students are often requesting extended time off during the interview season, each elective
director is encouraged to consider your own attendance and remediation policy.
Students are expected to be present for the various elective activities that will be noted by your staff.
Attendance is expected at the various clinical activities including morning ward rounds, operating room
when assigned, afternoon rounds, conferences, and any activity specifically requested by your attending.
Students are expected to be punctual for all of the various activities noted on the weekly schedule. Failure
to adhere to the schedule will result in undue delays and inconveniences to patients, students and faculty.
The development and maintenance of a professional attitude is an ongoing responsibility of each student.
Professional behavior is expected at all times. All students will be expected to dress in an appropriate
manner, convey a professional appearance or image, and are encouraged to be neat and clean. For further
information please see Student Code of Conduct requirements here:
http://medicine.tamhsc.edu/dean/policies/student-policies/student-code-conduct.html
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

rights protection for persons with disabilities. Among other things, this legislation requires that all students with

Mistreatment of Students
The College of Medicine is committed to providing a positive learning environment in which students can meet their
academic goals based on mutual respect in the teacher/learner relationship. Both parties must be sensitive to the needs
of others and differences in gender, race, sexual orientation, religion, age or disability. As outlined in the Student
Handbook under the section titled Standards of Conduct in the Teacher-Learner Relationship, belittlement, intimidation
and humiliation are unacceptable for effective learning and undermine self-esteem. Breaches involving student
mistreatment may result in a faculty or staff member being sanctioned or the loss of faculty and/or staff appointment.
These policies address student mistreatment involving College of Medicine employees, residents, affiliate staff, or
patients. Mistreatment may be reported through the College of Medicine telephone hotline, 1(855)-397-9835 or through
an online form at http://medicine.tamhsc.edu/current/student-mistreatment-form.html. For a full list of reporting avenues,
please refer to the Student Handbook under the Mistreatment Policy.
