Note: Absences should be reserved for emergencies (serious illness, severe
weather, transportation difficulties, family crisis, etc.). Medical and dental
appointments, as well as extracurricular activities, should be scheduled at times that do
not interfere with class meetings.
Students are expected to be
courteous during lectures and class discussions, to have respect for their fellow
classmates, and to engage fully in all classroom activities. Learning is a partnership
between you, your fellow classmates, and your instructor. You can do your part by giving
the class your full attention and exhibiting the college-level traits of curiosity,
serious-mindedness, and appreciation for learning. To facilitate this process, students
will be required to keep their desks free of distractions (newspapers, magazines, homework
assignments, etc.) and focus their attention on the dynamics of the classroom. Anyone
engaged in discourteous or disruptive behavior will be asked to leave the classroom and
will be counted that day as absent.
Essays will be accepted on
or before the due date, but not after. In the event of an
emergency, essays may be transmitted as email attachments, but they must arrive
on the due date. Send your essay to esmnet@earthlink.net
and be sure to get an acknowledgement. If you do not receive an acknowledgement
within 24 hours, you can assume that I did not receive your essay.
All examinations must be written
in blue books. These are available at most college bookstores. You will need three for the
semester.
Make-up examinations will be given
at the end of the semester. |
