Fall 2018 Course Syllabi

Absence and Makeup Policy Students are required to meet with the instructor before all excused absences, in order to prepare for or complete the upcoming assignments and classwork. In the event of a non-excused absence, students must contact the instructor, in order to receive the missed work. Late Work Policy Late work should always be handed in, regardless of the assignment’s due date. Classwork handed in past its due date will result in reduced points (up to three letter grades, depending on the assignment’s due date). If a student is struggling with an assignment, he or she should always contact the instructor well before the assignment’s due date. In most cases, an extended due date will be arranged. Although it is important to turn in work when it is due, our most important goal is to master the specific skills targeted by each assignment; occasionally, this requires additional time and effort spent on an assignment.
