Four lecture exams and a comprehensive final exam will be given during the term to evaluate
lecture materials. Each exam may consist of some multiple choice questions, some T/F, some
fill in the blank, some essay questions. Exams may be taken early if arrangements are made
ahead of time.
Two lab practical exams will be conducted during the semester to evaluate lab materials.
Questions on the lab practicals are all fill-in-the blank questions. All answers must be written
clearly and spelled correctly.
There will be regularly scheduled quizzes over vocabulary and anatomy. These will be taken at
the beginning of the lecture period. Two of the lowest quiz grades will be dropped. 5 bonus
points will be awarded to the final grade for each dropped quiz with a C or better grade.
In addition, lab reports covering various aspects of human physiology will be turned in for
points. Each lab report is worth 5 points turned in on time with class attendance. All lab
reports turned in on time and finished will add up to about 120 points with the 20 points out
of 120 as bonus.

Emergency Procedures:
Lone Star College is committed to providing a safe environment in which to learn, study, and
work. Knowing what to do is your best protection and your responsibility. In the event of a
health, safety, or environmental emergency while on campus, students should immediately
contact LSCS police at 281-290-5911 or the administrator on duty. If you know you will need
assistance to evacuate during an emergency, please register by calling 281-290-5911 at any
time. Detailed information on LSC emergency procedures at www.lonestar.edu/oem.
Attendance and participation:
It is crucial to be present in your class whether online or on campus. Insert your attendance policy and drop
policy.
Under Section 51.907 of the Texas Education Code, “An institution of higher education may not permit a
student to drop more than SIX (6) courses, including any course a transfer student has dropped at another
Texas public institution of higher education.” This statute was enacted by the State of Texas in spring 2007 and
applies to students who enroll in a public institution of higher education as first-time freshmen in the fall 2007
semester or later. Students enrolled prior to fall 2007 are not affected. Any course that a student drops is
counted toward the six-course limit unless the student is completely withdrawing from the institution or
meets one of the criteria required for a waiver. A “drop” in this instance is considered when a student is
dropped or withdrawn from a course after official day resulting in a grade of “W.” Eligible criteria for a waiver
include a) change of work schedule prohibiting attendance, b) active military, c) severe illness or debilitating
condition, d) death of a family member, e) class cancellation, and f) complete withdrawal. Developmental
Studies courses do not apply to this rule.
Academic Integrity:
The Lone Star College upholds the core values of learning: honesty, respect, fairness, and accountability. The
system promotes the importance of personal and academic honesty. The system embraces the belief that all
leaners—students, faculty, staff, and administrators—will act with integrity and honesty and must produce
their own work and give appropriate credit to the work of others. Fabrication of sources, cheating, or
unauthorized collaboration is not permitted on any work submitted with the system.
The consequences for academic dishonesty are determined by the professor, or the professor and academic
dean, or the professor and chief student services officer and can include but are not limited to:
1. Having additional class requirements imposed
2. Receiving a grade of zero or “F” for an exam or assignment
3. Receiving a grade of “F” for the course
4. Being withdrawn from the course or program
5. Being expelled from the college system
Any alleged violation or flagrant disregard of LSC rules and regulations shall be brought to the attention of the
chief student services officer, who will initiate an investigation of the situation. After a complete and thorough
investigation, the chief student services officer will determine the course of action. Discipline may result in
expulsion. The decision of the administrator may be appealed to the college discipline committee. The
complete discipline policy may be found online at

According to board policy, no children are allowed in classes.
