Disability Statement:
If you have emergency medical information to share with me, if you need special arrangements in
case the building must be evacuated, or if you need accommodations in this course because of a
disability, please make an appointment with me. My office location and hours are posted at the top
of the syllabus. If you plan to request disability accommodations, you are expected to register with
Annette Charette, Student Support Counselor at 477-7842 Extension 1155.
Attendance and Participation:
It is highly recommended to attend and participate in class. I have a policy that if you miss more than
ten times it is an automatic failure of the course. If you have an emergency and cannot make it to
class DO NOT wait until the next day or next class to let me know what happened. DO NOT tell
someone else; notify me described in the Methods of Instruction section.
Class Procedures:
All assignments will be submitted via email or uploaded into a drop box in Jenzabar. Late
assignments will result in partial or NO credit. If instructor is out of the class or if you have an
emergency, use contact info attached to the syllabus and email or leave message on telephone.
Statement on Cultural Content or Methods in Course:
The mission of the Turtle Mountain Community College is to create an environment in which the
cultural and social heritage of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa can be brought to bear
throughout the curriculum. We will try to invite a guest speaker into our classroom to go over
the history of our ancestors and how they managed people without the use of technological
devices like computers. We will have a guest speaker that will be presenting in the class for a
graded assignment.
Statement of Academic Honesty:
Students are expected to maintain scholastic honesty. Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not
limited to cheating on a test, plagiarism, and collusion. When an infraction occurs, instructors
have the authority to act personally. Instructors will report action to the Dean of Academic
Programs. A student has the right to appeal the instructor’s action in accordance with the student
appeal policy.
Assessment:
Student Learning Outcomes will be assessed through a pre and post testing for each semester.
