Important Notes:
a. Do not hesitate to ask questions on any material you do not fully understand.
b. Students are required to bring the manual and take notes in all classes.
c. Students are expected to attend every class session and they are responsible for all
material, announcements and schedule changes.
d. Don’t Cheat; direct copying of others work will NOT be allowed or tolerated and will
result in a reduction of grade. If you are found to be cheating in any way, on an exam or
reports you will be given an “F” for the course. There will be no exceptions.
e. All cases of academic dishonesty will be handled in accordance with university policies
and regulations. JU policy requires the faculty member to assign ZERO grade (F) if a
2
student misses 15% of the classes that are not excused, and 20% of the classes that
are excused
f. There will be a number of unannounced quizzes during the semester. Students are
expected to be ready to take a quiz any time they have a class. There will be no make-up
quizzes.
