Class Policies
1. Attendance: You may miss one class for whatever reason. All misses beyond that will result in the loss of 25 points per day, no matter why you miss class. The exception is that you may not miss the class project or the final class day.. You must arrive on time and stay for the entire class. Arriving late hurts your group. You are responsible for getting missed materials and lecture notes from classmates. Do not ask the instructor for materials if you are late or were absent. If an unforeseen crisis arises, you will need to drop this class because of the time factor and its intensive nature. It is the student’s responsibility to drop the course, failure to do so, could result in an F grade!
2. Assignments: Your homework should be turned in on time and in person to the instructor. Please do not send assignments via email or in other mailboxes at school. If you are sick or unable to attend class, you may have someone else turn in a paper for you (in person). Please put your name on the back of the last page. Papers and homework must be turned in within the first 15 minutes of class on the day they are assigned to be considered for full points. Each day the assignment is late, deduct one letter grade. No late homework will be accepted during the last week of school!
4. Disabilities: I encourage all students with physical/learning disabilities to see me privately within the first week of class. We can brainstorm and negotiate ways to accommodate your needs.
5. Extra Credit: No extra credit will be given. Please do your best on every assignment. I will do my best to help you with assignments before they are due. I can easily look over the content of your papers; however, if you are having problems with grammar and sentence structure you will need to find a tutor. I strongly encourage students with difficulty writing to seek help from the Writing Center.
6. Class Topics: We will be dealing with controversial issues and subjects in this class which you may find upsetting. You always have the right to quietly refrain from participating in an activity or excusing yourself from listening to material you find disturbing.
7. Grades: Furthermore, if you believe a grade you have received is unfair, confusing, or incorrect, please talk with me within a few days of receiving that grade. Please wait one day
