Make-Up Speech Policy/Caveats
•
Missed Speeches: Students who are not able to perform one of their major speeches on their scheduled
speech day (for any student-initiated reason, including illness) MAY have the opportunity to make up the speech
at the end of the semester on the Make-Up Day scheduled above (no guarantees that you will be able to
make up a speech). Please pay attention to the following conditions:
• Students may only make up one (1) major speech (if you miss more than one speech, you will not be able
to make up any speeches; since you cannot pass the class without doing all the speeches, this will result in
a failing grade).
o Major speeches in this class are the Bag Speech, Informative Speech, and Persuasive Speech.
• Make-up speeches will be assessed a 35% penalty (right off the top), meaning that even if you earn a
perfect score of 100% (not very likely because, as a rule, I don’t give 100% on speeches), the highest grade
you can get on the speech would be a 65%.
• There is a limited time available for make-up speeches; when the time is filled, no other make-up speeches
will be scheduled (so, no guarantees that you will be able to make up a speech).
• If I end up having to push the schedule back (e.g., I must cancel class or run behind on the schedule), the
time scheduled for make-ups will be canceled (again, no guarantees that you will be able to make up a
speech).

Public Speaking
Remember: If you choose to take a make-up, you are running a risk that you might not be able to make it
up!
PUNCTUALITY IS IMPORTANT ON PRESENTATION DAYS!
• If you are scheduled to speak and you arrive after the first speaker has begun/finished speaking
(you shouldn’t be walking in on a speaker who is presenting for a grade), you will be allowed to
present your speech that day, but minus a 10% penalty.
• If you arrive after the second speaker has begun/finished speaking, you will not be able to
present that day and will need resign yourself to a make-up speech (again, no guarantees that
you will be able to make up a speech).
Late Assignments/Make-Up Exams/In-Class Activities
•
•
Late Assignments: Assignments are due at the beginning of the class session in which they are due. Thus, if
the class is scheduled to start at 9:00 a.m., any papers received (in person or via email) at 9:01 a.m. or later will
be considered “late” and will be penalized according to the following:
• Same calendar day as due date – 50% penalty (e.g., on a 10-point assignment, you will lose 5 points). It
matters not if it is 5 minutes late or 4 hours late; late is late.
• No late papers accepted after midnight (12:00 a.m.) on the due date.
• If you decide to email your assignments:
o Please email early enough to determine if your message “bounced.” Make sure you have keyed in the
right email address (harrispa@scc.losrios.edu). I will try to send a confirmation email when I receive it,
but you shouldn’t rely on this.
o Additionally, do not delete your sent email! As I often check email away from a computer and a printer, I
may confirm that I received it and then forget to record the grade when I get to a computer.
Make-Up Exams/In-Class Activities: I understand that things come up (friends get married, people oversleep,
employers don’t understand that classes are a priority for you, etc.). If you know in advance (e.g., the work
situation), I will try to accommodate you by scheduling the exam prior to the original scheduled day.
If you think you have a justifiable reason for rescheduling an exam, you must provide appropriate
documentation (e.g., note from a doctor).
o Exams: If you do not attend on a scheduled exam day AND you don’t inform me in advance so that we can
schedule at a mutually convenient time, you will be minus the points allocated for the exam.
o In-Class Activities: Any in-class activities for which points are allotted cannot be made up.
