MISSED ASSIGNMENTS OR EXAMS:
The instructor's Web Site (shown above) for this course will list
all materials covered, the assignments given, along with due dates,
and exam dates.
When you know you will miss class ahead of time, let the
instructor know and make arrangements to make up any missed work or
exam. Assignments missed must be made up on your own time, not in
class.
It is the student's responsibility to initiate and
complete missed assignments by the next class meeting. Assignments
will still be considered late if not turned in on the
due date. Exams missed must be made up by seeing the instructor and
making arrangements. The make-up exam will be more difficult than
the exam taken in class.
LATE ASSIGNMENTS:
Assignments turned in late (not turned in by the end of
the day of the due date) will suffer an automatic 10-point
deduction per day late taken from the grade. Five days late will be
an automatic 50-point deduction, which means a failing score before
it is even graded.
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES:
If a student is unable to adhere to the attendance policy, or undue
circumstances prevent the completion of the course, it is the
student’s responsibility to withdraw from this class and receive a
W.
Other student responsibilities are addressed in the section above
concerning missed assignments or exams & late assignments.
CELL PHONES:
Cell phones have become a problem and therefore must be turned off
in class. The exception to this rule will be that the student may
set the cell phone to vibrate only and must leave the
class room to answer the phone if it is perceived to be an
emergency.
Academic Honesty Policy:
Students are expected to uphold the school’s standard of conduct
relating to academic honesty. Students assume full responsibility
for the content and integrity of the academic work they submit. The
guiding principle of academic integrity shall be that a student’s
submitted work, examinations, reports, and projects must be that of
the student’s own work. Students shall be guilty of violating the
honor code if they:
1.
Represents the work of others as his own.
2.
Uses or obtains unauthorized assistance in any academic work.
3.
Gives unauthorized assistance to other students.
4.
Modifies, without instructor approval, an examination, paper,
record, or report for the purpose of obtaining additional credit.
5.
Misrepresents the content of submitted work.
Administrative Procedure Number: 404.05
Cheating in any form (including using unauthorized materials,
information, or study aids in any academic exercise; plagiarism;
falsification of records; unauthorized possession of examinations;
any and all other actions that may improperly affect the evaluation
of a student's academic performance or achievement; and assisting
others in any such act) is forbidden. An instructor who has proof
that a student is guilty of cheating may take appropriate action up
to and including assigning the student a grade of "F" for the course
and suspending the student from class. A description of the incident
and the action taken will be reported through the dean to the Vice
Chancellor for Instruction and placed in the student's file in the
Office of Admissions and Records.
The student may appeal either the finding of cheating or the
penalty, or both, as described in Administrative Procedure No.
404.06, Academic Appeal Procedure.
Cheating in this class:
Cheating will not be tolerated. If you are cheating on one
occasion, you will receive an “F” for the whole project’s work (not
limited to that one assignment.) If found cheating on a second
occasion, you will be asked to drop the class. If the cheating
occurs after the drop date, or if you choose not to drop, you will
receive an “F” for this class. All work must be on your disk or in
your folder unless the instructor directs you to destroy them.
