Attendance
You are expected to attend every class meeting. I will keep track of attendance. With an exceptional attendance record, you will have the opportunity to acquire the necessary knowledge and understanding to fulfill the course learning outcomes and effectively complete course assignments. You will not understand how to complete the course assignments if you do not come to class.
Because I feel attendance is so important to your learning, I've created this grade incentive:
Attend 36 or more classes between 30 Aug and 4 Dec and receive 10 points added to your total course points.
Attend 34 or 35 classes between 30 Aug and 4 Dec and receive 6 points added to your total course points.
Attend 32 or 33 classes between 30 Aug and 4 Dec and receive 4 points added to your total course points.
Note: there are 40 classes between 30 Aug and 4 Dec. I do not start counting absences until after the last day for late registration, 28 August.
The university's policy on "authorized" absences is found here. Unless you are absent for an authorized activity (as defined by the university), you do not need to notify me of your reasons for missing class. If you are more than 15 minutes late to class (for any reason) your attendance will not be recorded for that day. Falsifying your attendance record or that of another student is a violation of the University's Honor Code.
