Attendance Policy:
At the discretion of the instructor, students may be dropped from a class
if they do not attend the first class meeting for a once-a-week class, or
the first two class meetings for a twice-a-week class.
In addition, based
on the pedagogical needs of any particular class, an instructor may set
specific attendance guidelines. In these cases, students will be notified
in advance by the instructor. Repeating Coursework:
Students may retake a failed course for credit if they wish to do so and
must retake a failed course if it is a degree requirement or a prerequisite
to other courses that the student wishes to elect. Both the original failing
grade and the grade received when the course is retaken are used to
determine the student's academic standing and honors. A student may retake a
course in which a passing grade was received if the desire is to strengthen
knowledge or improve the grade, but the credit hours will be counted only
once toward degree requirements.
In general, classes numbered 742 through 745 are designated "Special Topics"
and may be retaken as the course content varies from term to term. However,
because some topics are repeated, it is important for the student to verify
that the class is indeed different from when it was taken previously to
receive credit for it. |
