While no formal tutorial services are currently available, students
are encouraged to seek help and advice from their instructor during office
hours and during mutually-arranged meeting times.
VII. Attendance Policy
Regular and punctual attendance at all classes and laboratories, day
and/or evening, is required. A student absent for any reason is responsible
for all work missed. Absences of each student are recorded without exception
from the official date of his/her enrollment. The counting of absences
begins on the first day of a student's enrollment in the course after classes
begin. A student absent the equivalent of two weeks of instruction in a
regular semester may be dropped by the instructor. If a student is dropped
from a class for excessive absences, the instructor will record a grade
of "W" (withdraw). It is the student's responsibility to ensure that the
withdrawals have been submitted. Both tardiness and early departure from
class are forms of absenteeism. The instructor establishes the policy with
regard to each. In the case of canceled classes due to inclement weather
or other emergencies, attempts will be made to assure that classroom hours
are rescheduled.
