laboratories, and field trips. A student who expects to be absent due to
another school-sponsored activity or compelling personal reason must make
prior arrangements with the instructor. All course work must be made up as
directed by the instructor. A student who does not adhere to instructor and
College attendance requirements may be dropped from the course as defined
in the Yavapai College General Catalog.
Course Withdrawal: A student-initiated drop date is established by the College. For Spring
semester 2013, this date is Sunday, March 10, 2013. Students are responsible
to drop a class through the Self-Service option on the myYC Portal. If you

An “S” grade is defined as equivalent to a grade of “C” or better on the
Satisfactory (S) conventional grading scale of A-F. A course completed with an “S” grade
Unsatisfactory (U) Grades indicates appropriate subject area knowledge to satisfy the prerequisite
requirement of a related higher-level course.
Specified courses are graded only S/U. Students who prefer the S/U grading
option must notify the class instructor. Conditions of
Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U) grading:
• Since some college and universities limit the number of credits completed
with S/U grading that will transfer, or restrict the way that such credits may
be applied to degree requirements, it is recommended that students
preparing to transfer select the S/U grading option only for elective courses.
• A maximum of twelve (12) hours of “S” credit from 100- and 200-level
courses may be applied toward Yavapai College graduation requirements.
• S/U grading is not an option for courses applied to the Arizona General
Education Curriculum (AGEC).
• S/U grades are not computed in the student’s Yavapai College grade point
average.
Honesty in academic work is a central element of the learning environment.
Academic Integrity: It will be assumed that you will present your own work. The presentation of
another individual’s work as one’s own or the act of seeking unfair academic
advantage through cheating, plagiarism or other dishonest means are
violations of the College’s Student Code of Conduct.
Definitions of plagiarism, cheating, and violation of copyright and penalties
for violation are available in the Yavapai College Student Code of Conduct
(http://www.yc.edu/v4content/student-services/code-conduct.htm)
Student Code of Conduct: Respect for the rights of others and for the College and its property are
fundamental expectations for every student. The “Code of Conduct” outlines
behavioral expectations, and explains the process for responding to
allegations of student misconduct.
Students are expected to respond and write in a professional and appropriate
manner when activities are assigned to create scenarios, discuss opinions,
present on a selected subject, or post to the web discussion board.
Inappropriate language or objectionable material will not be tolerated and
could result in disciplinary measures and/or a failing grade for the class.

Rules and Procedures Explanation
Classroom
 To ensure every student receives a meaningful opportunity inside of the classroom, these
rules will be strictly adhered to. Any misbehavior will affect everyone’s ability to
understand and learn the content we have prepared. Any misbehavior will have
consequences that may include expulsion from this class. A successful student in this
class will be an exemplary example to all who participates.
Shop Rules
 Our shop rules are developed to ensure the safety of the students and others around them.
These rules are to be adhered to at all times. If they are not adhered to, actions will be
taken for the safety of all parties involved. Some of the most violated rules are wearing
open toed shoes such as sandals, eating in the shop, and not wearing safety glasses.
Closed toed shoes are a necessity to prevent permanent injury from, sharp, hot, and heavy
objects located in the shop area. If a student does not have closed toe shoes an alternative
assignment will be given which prevents them from participating in lab activities. Due to
the abundance of clothing that does not meet safety regulations in the shop, it is at the
instructor’s discretion as to what appropriate personal protective clothing or equipment is
to be allowed in the shop environment.

Welcome to Automotive Technology at
Mingus Union High School
Welcome to Auto Technology at Mingus Union High School. I am very excited to share my knowledge
with you and create an appreciation for career and technical education. There are many attributes that I
would like to share with you about our program. Our program here at Mingus is articulated with the
automotive program at Yavapai College. This means that we teach the same content yet at different
facilities. The students who pass auto 2 and 3 with a C or higher will gain a college credit from Yavapai.
In addition to getting college credit, the students who complete all three courses may receive a certificate
in automotive technology through Yavapai College and walk in their graduation ceremony. Other
attributes include the participation in Skills USA. Skills USA is a student organization that prepares
students to become skilled in the workplace. Through Skills USA students will learn how to conduct job
interviews, write resumes, compete in competitions locally and possibly travel nationally. The automotive
program that has been created over the last 30 years focuses on the success of all students and will
continue to be committed to educational excellence.
Your student should bring home a syllabus that contains all policies and procedures that are expected to be
followed in our class. The policies set forth in the syllabus are for the benefit of both the student and Mr.
Tankesley. Rules, procedures and consequences are necessary for any class to provide the best
opportunities available for student achievement. The students are my number one priority and I have very
high expectations that encourage them to strive for excellence. Please take the time to review my
expectations and feel free to contact me during the time listed on the syllabus.
On the back of this sheet is some information I need from you (the parent) that will help your child
become successful in the classroom. Information includes phone number, e-mail, and the best time to
contact you I will contact you for reasons such as praise, discipline, events, progress, and to let you know
how well your child is doing in class.
Thank you,
Brian Tankesley
