ATTENDANCE
ATTENDANCE
Students are required to attend all class meetings.
● You get three (3) absences for the WHOLE semester. Period. I do not distinguish between excused and unexcused absences.
● On the 4th absence your FINAL GRADE will be reduced 1/3 of a letter grade. Each subsequent absence will result in another 1/3 of a letter grade reduction.
● If you miss eight (8) classes- you will automatically receive an “F” for the course. ☹

To prepare you for industry standards, I am asking that we abide by the following:
● MISSING A PERFORMANCE:
● If you are late or absent on a performance day (unless there it is a University Sponsored Event and you provide documentation) you will receive a “0” for the assignment.
● You will not be allowed to make up the assignment.
• If your partner is on time and present they will not be penalized for your absence and will be allowed to make up their grade.

university sponsored event & religious observance
● If you have a University Sponsored Event: (field trip, competition, performance, etc.) Please let me know a.s.a.p. so that I can work with you to make up any missed assignments.
· You must turn in an official description sheet, with contact information at least, 1 week before the event.
· Failure to provide documentation does not oblige me to honor the absence.
· You are allowed a minimum of two absences per year for religious observances.
· Notice must be given by the student to the instructor before the absence occurs and no later than three weeks after the start of the semester in which the absence(s) will occur. Arrangements will be made to make up work missed by these religious observances, without penalty to the student. For the purposes of this policy, ASU defines the term “religious observance” to include religious holidays, holy days, or similar observances associated with a student’s faith that require absence from class.

Theatre is a collaborative art. Active listening and supportiveness is essential.
The energy WE bring in the room is the experience. Your PRESENCE matters.
You matter.
