THIRD: COURSE RULES
ATTENDANCE RULES
Attendance and participation are extremely important, and the usual University rules will apply.
Attendance will be recorded for each class. Absence of 10% will result in a first written warning. Absence
of 15% of the course will result in a second warning. Absence of 20% or more will result in forfeiting the
course and the student will not be permitted to attend the final examination. Should a student
encounter any special circumstances (i.e. medical or personal), he/she is encouraged to discuss this with
the instructor and written proof will be required to delete any absences from his/her attendance
records.
