Attendance/Participation:

The expectation is that students attend (every) class, be on time and be prepared for class. The class meets once a week, therefore 1 absence may occur during the term without penalty. After the 1st absence, a 5-point deduction (5% of the cumulative grade) per absence is the penalty.

Professionalism is required. Assigned work is BY OR BEFORE THE SPECIFIED TIME AND DATE. A letter grade will be dropped for every day that the work is late.

If you have a situation that results in extended absence, please contact the instructor to make arrangements.

Midterm grades will be posted by the end of the sixth week of the term to help students and advisors understand progress.

Course Materials Purchased by the Students:

No course materials are required.
