Class Policies
a) Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each class period, starting the
first day of class and ending on the day of the final exam. Regular attendance
is mandatory since the student is responsible for all materials covered in the
lecture, class discussions, hands-outs of current cases and text. Typically
there is a correlation between classroom attendance and performance on
exams and other assignments. The instructor reserves the right to lower the
final grade based on the student absence without a verifiable work-related or
medical reason
b) The maximum number of unexcused absences accepted in a semester to be
able to pass the course is SIX (6).
c) The excused absences are not part of this counting but they are required to
be submitted in writing to the Provost’s office with a copy for the professor.
d) More than three late arrivals are equal to 1 absence, unless they have a valid
excuse.
e) Early departures from class will require the professor authorization or will be
treated as an absence.
f) Each student will be responsible for the assignment given during her/his
absence.
g) Late homework assignment: Grades lowered 10%
h) All work turned in via e-mail must receive an answer from the professor as
confirmation of effective delivery. If the student does not get a response, the
professor did not receive it. All documents must open successfully; if a
document is sent but does not open, it’s as not delivered. Students are
responsible for e-work delivery, not the professor.
i) No Make-up exams will be accepted; the lowest Unit exam grade will be
dropped at the end of the semester.
j) The following rules will be applied to the behavior in class.
