Use of any electronic devise by students in the
instructional environment is prohibited unless explicitly

that they believe to be emergency calls must answer
quietly without disturbing the teaching environment. If the
call is an emergency, they must move unobtrusively and
quietly from the instructional area and notify the instructor
as soon as reasonably possible. Students who are
expecting an emergency call should inform the instructor
before the start of the instructional period.
