Policy on Attendance
                        Since regular attendance is absolutely necessary for the successful completion of this course, the                                     following rules will be strictly enforced.

            A.        No more than 3 absences will be allowed. The fourth time you do not show up for class you may be                              dropped. I strongly urge you, therefore, not to miss class unless you have an extreme emergency.

            B.         Although I may drop you for non-attendance, do not count on it if you decide to withdraw from class.                          Sometimes, particularly toward the end of the semester, I do not have time to drop students.  Therefore,                         it is your responsibility to formally drop the course should you be forced to withdraw. However, I cannot                         drop you for non-attendance after November 11.

Policy on Papers and Assignments

            A.        All major assignments must be completed for you to get a passing grade in this course. 

            B.         Quizzes worth fewer than 11 points cannot be made up for any reason.

            C.        You are responsible for knowing what the assignments are when you miss class.  

Plagiarism
            A student who knowingly or through ignorance of the rules of citation submits for evaluation the work of others             disguised as his own has committed an act of plagiarism.  If a student plagiarizes, he will receive a "0" for the             submitted work, and this act of dishonesty may warrant the total loss of credit for the course.  See the                         departmental Policy on Plagiarism if you do not understand what plagiarism is.

Requirements

            You will be required to take three major tests, many quizzes, and write two, five-page, critical research papers.

Disability: If you have a disability, I will be happy to help you in any way I can to facilitate your success in this course.
However, it is your decision to discuss your disability with me.  I can best assist you if you discuss your disability with me
early in the semester.  Any information you share with me will remain private and confidential.  Please consult the Counseling Center for more detailed information about assistance the college can provide you.
