Classroom Policies:

Participation.
Students are expected to come to class prepared and actively engage in class

engage in discussion. Computers are welcome in the classroom for note-taking purposes
only
. If
students abuse this privilege, the instructor reserves the right to ban computers from the lecture
periods.
•
Deadlines.
All assignments are due on or before the time that is specified in the syllabus.
Students will be deducted 5 points for every 24-hour period the assignment is not turned in,
including weekends.
If a student is aware that they will miss an exam, they must inform the instructor
at least two
weeks
prior to the missed exam. An essay exam (worth 100 points) will substitute for the missed
exam. This test must be taken
before
the schedule exam date. If a student is sick or experience
unforeseen circumstances where an exam must be missed,
the instructor must be informed
immediately and proper documentation must be presented
(e.g. doctor’s note, police accident
report). An essay exam will take the place of the missed exam must be taken within one week of
the exam date. If the student does not notify the instructor before the next class period, the
student will receive a “0” for the missed exam. Students involved in college activities (e.g.
athletics) that require them to miss an exam will take a make-up which is the same format at
typical exams (multiple choice and short answer). Proper documentation from a coach or faculty
supervisor is required to avoid the essay exam.
