Class Procedure:

Class will be a mixture of lecture and student discussion. Student participation in the class discussion is strongly recommended and encouraged as a vital part of the learning process. It is the instructor’s opinion and recommendation that students should spend at least 10-15 hours per week preparing for this class. Students should read the appropriate chapter prior to coming to class.

Attendance Policy:

In registering for classes at the University, undergraduate and graduate students accept responsibility for attending scheduled class meetings, completing assignments on time, and contributing to class discussion and exploration of ideas. If a student does not attend class during the first two weeks (first 14 calendar days) of the semester, and does not give prior notification to the instructor of reasons for absence and intent to attend the class, the student will be required to drop the course. It is the responsibility of the student to drop the course or to withdraw from the University according to University policy.
A faculty member may excuse absences and allow students to make up work if the faculty member deems the absence legitimate. A faculty member is not expected to provide make-up opportunities for a student without a legitimate excuse. Official excuses are granted by the office of the Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost for authorized University activities, and must be honored by the faculty.
Students receiving financial aid benefits are required to attend classes according to the regulations for financial aid benefits in addition to those regulations required for the course. (See the Oracle.)
Inclement Weather and Emergency Situations: Both faculty and students are responsible for meeting all assigned classes. In the event of inclement weather, faculty and students will be expected to attend classes as usual as long as they may do so without risking peril to themselves or to others. During periods of inclement weather, faculty and students will not be penalized for absences dictated by perilous conditions. In severe cases of inclement weather or other emergency conditions, the University will announce cancellation of classes through the local and regional media as well as through the University’s web site. The cancellation announcement may be specific to Alabama campuses or national or international
sites across the University.
