Classroom
Etiquette: Students must arrive on
time to class and must stay until the end of class. If you have a specific problem with this, you
should let me know.
Attendance
Policy: Students are allowed no more
than 5 absences, including both excused and unexcused absences. On the sixth absence a student may be
withdrawn from the course with a grade of W or WF (definitely WF after
midpoint). Do not regard these 5 allowed absences as "personal free
days." These are only to be used in cases of illnesses or family
emergencies. In some cases, verification may be required.
Honesty
Policty: Adademic Honesty All students are responsible for
maintaining the highest standards of honesty and integrity in every phase of
their academic careers. The penalties for academic dishonesty are severe and
ignorance is not an acceptable defense. Students should pay particular
attention to sections 5 and 7 of the academic honesty statement at http://www.uga.edu/ovpi/academic_honesty/culture_honesty.htm.
