Class Attendance Policy

Class Attendance

Regular class attendance is a key determinant of student success.  It also is an important factor in a student's commitment to the transfer of knowledge.  For that reason, each student should recognize the benefits of regular class attendance, and embrace such as a personal charge.  It is a student's responsibility to complete all coursework, including tests, and written assignments of all class meetings.  University faculty members are encouraged to monitor the progress and activity of their students.

Student's Responsibility

  • To understand and adhere to an instructor's expectations for course participation and satisfactory course completion.  Students must also monitor their progress throughout the term.

The Instructor's Responsibility

  • To establish and communicate how students' progress and activity will be monitored
  • Publish course expectations in course syllabi at the beginning of each term
