1. Objective
Students will examine the major issues and
events of the Twentieth Century, with a special
emphasis on the Post-World War Two era.

textbook in the condition as it was assigned. You
will be held liable for damages to the textbook.
3. Assignments and Graded Work

without exception. Graded work will be
customarily returned within a week. Items turned
in without a first and last name and / or

calculated using the total point method (Total
points earned divided by the total possible).

Be sure to check the Daily Activity Binder when
you return. I adhere to the policy printed in the
Student Handbook. Check kalpich.com daily for

7. Absence from Class, but not from School
All work must be completed on time without
delay. Please give advance notice and then check
the Daily Activity Binder when you return.
