ATTENDANCE
Students
With enrollment in college the student accepts responsibility to take full advantage of the educational opportunity by regular attendance at classes or laboratories. Class participation is a significant component to your education, so regular attendance is important. Each instructor has the responsibility of clearly communicating personal expectations concerning attendance. All students should make note of their instructor(s)’ policy on absences. Instructors’ attendance policies are stated in their individual course syllabi. Once the instructors’ limits have been exceeded, classroom work is very difficult to make up, and the student and instructor will need to discuss how to proceed. It may not be possible to make up many missed classes. Discuss anticipated absences with instructors to determine potential impact on academic success. In every case of absence, the responsibility for making up work rests with the student.Faculty
Faculty absences are posted in or near classrooms when classes are canceled due to illness or other extenuating circumstances. If an instructor is late for class or laboratory, students should extend the courtesy of waiting. Also, check the Web CT course site for instructor messages, or call the faculty secretary at ext. 345. If an instructor has not arrived within fifteen (15) minutes after the class is scheduled, students should notify the Office of Dean of Learning and Student Development before leaving.
