A Note on Attendance
No points are allocated for attending class; however, points can be docked for failing to attend class. Each student is permitted two absences without the need for explanation or excuse (though it would be wise to find someone who attended class to fill you in on what you missed). Students who miss more than two classes can expect to lose up to 2 points per absence (clear communication about serious illness or other extenuating circumstances may result in additional excused absences). In addition, students are responsible for finding out if late work or work done in absentia will be accepted and for turning in work for days during which they are absent.
