Class Attendance
Regular class attendance is expected of each student in every class.
Students are responsible for knowing and adhering to attendance/absence policies in each of their classes. If a student will miss an exam, presentation, or assignment due to illness or injury, the student should notify the faculty member in advance. Students are expected to maintain an open line of communication with the faculty member regarding any necessary absence and the potential impact on the student's grade.
Faculty members are responsible for determining and communicating their specific course attendance policy. The course syllabus must include attendance requirements, the procedure for notifying the instructor of student absence, and the impact of attendance and missed work on the course grade. It is within the faculty member's purview to determine how attendance and missed work will affect the course grade.
