Questions about test grades can be emailed to the instructor up to 10 days (including weekends) after the
grade is posted; after this time grades are considered final. Questions regarding grades can be emailed to the
instructor no sooner then 24-hours after the grade has been posted. Challenging the grade will result in a re-grade.
Re-grades may result in a grade higher or lower than the original grade.

Canceled Class.
If a weather-related event prevents the professor from getting to class, students will be
responsible for completing an “assignment” over the scheduled reading. Information about the assignment will be
provided on the class Moodle shell, and the deadline for completion of the assignment will be by 9:00pm the day
of the missed class. The “assignment” will take the place of an in-class quiz, and will be worth 5 points. Students
will be notified of the professor’s absence by a note on the classroom door, as well as with an email. Just as with
the in-class quizzes, if a student does not complete the assignment by 9:00pm, it cannot be made up.
Academic Integrity:
Plagiarism (taking the ideas, thoughts, or language or someone else and passing them off as your own) will not be
tolerated in this class. If a student is suspected of plagiarizing, cheating, or not doing their own work, the matter will be
investigated. Any student who is found to engage in academic dishonesty (including letting others cheat off of you) will
receive an automatic “F” in the course. Additionally, the incident will be reported to the appropriate University office and
additional action may be taken.
Disabilities and Special Needs:
Please inform the instructor within the first week of classes if any assistance is required due to disabilities or special
needs.
Student E-mail Policy
The Dakota College at Bottineau campus community is increasingly dependent upon electronic communication among
faculty, staff and students. Because of its convenience, cost-effectiveness and speed, e-mail has replaced much of the
paper correspondence of the past. Because of this acceptance of and reliance upon electronic communication, e-mail is
considered an official form of communication at Dakota College at Bottineau. A student’s campus-assigned e-mail
address will be the only one recognized by the campus for official mailings. The liability for missing or not acting upon
important information conveyed via email because of a failure to access a campus-assigned e-mail address rests with the
student
