Attendance Policy: Attendance is required. Students who miss more than 4 classes without an excuse will have their grades lowered by one notch (e.g., from B to B-). Those who miss more than 8 classes will have their grades lowered by two notches, etc.

Attendance and Your Health: To achieve course learning goals, students must attend and participate in classes, according to your instructors' requirements. However, if you feel unwell or if you are under quarantine or in isolation because you have been exposed to the virus or tested positive for it, you should not come to campus or attend in-person classes or activities. Students have the responsibility to contact their instructors to create a plan for participation and engagement in the course as soon as they are able to do so and to make a plan to complete all assignments in a timely fashion when illness delays their completion.

Homework: The best way to master the material is through practice. Homework problems will be assigned each class for you to work on. Questions about homework problems may be asked during office hours and the beginning of most classes. These problems will not be collected, but many of the quiz questions will look similar to the assigned homework. A full list of homework problems for the semester can be found on our Canvas page.

Quizzes: There will usually be two quizzes every week. Each quiz will consist of problems similar to the ones assigned from the textbook. No make up for a missed quiz.

Calculator Policy: No calculator or cheat sheets will be allowed on any exams or quizzes.

Make Up Policy: No make ups for missed quizzes or exams will be given except in cases of DOCUMENTED emergencies. If such an emergency occurs, a student MUST contact their instructor AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (preferably by e-mail) in order to make make up arrangements. All make ups must be taken within two days of the missed test. No make ups will be given after graded tests are returned to any of the sections.

Exam Security Policy: We have a zero tolerance policy for cheating on the tests and quizzes. Any student caught cheating will receive a score of 0 on the test or quiz and will be reported to the Student Code of Conduct Board. All electronic devices required for testing must be used only for the purposed of accessing and submitting the exam. They are not allowed to be used for accessing information from outside sources. Students are not permitted to communicate with one another during the exam or quiz. Any student found in violation of this policy will receive a score of 0 for the test or quiz, and will be reported to the Student Code of Conduct Board.

Academic Freedom: Freedom to teach and freedom to learn are inseparable facets of academic freedom. The University has adopted a policy on Student and Faculty Academic Rights and Responsibilities (Policy # 03.70.02) which can be accessed here (opens in new tab/window).

Add/Drop Policy: Students will be charged for a course unless dropped by the Drop/Add deadline date. Check the University calendar (opens in new tab/window) for exact dates.

During the Drop/Add period, students may drop a course with no record of the class appearing on their transcript. Students are not financially responsible for any courses dropped during this period. In the following weeks prior to or on the withdrawal date students may withdraw from a course with the grade of "W" appearing on their transcript.

Incomplete Policy: The grade "I" (an "incomplete") is only given if students cannot complete the course work due to circumstances beyond their control. It is necessary for the student to have completed the majority of the course work with a passing average and to sign an incomplete contract which clearly states what is left for the student to do and the deadline by which the work must be completed. The incomplete contract must also include a default grade that will be used in case the "I" grade is not resolved by the agreed deadline.
