Attendance

You are expected to participate in each class meeting.  Class engagement is highly correlated with class success.

Please grant me the courtesy of letting me know at the beginning of the week if you will need miss any days. In the event that you must miss a class, please work with a classmate to copy their notes and get any class updates. When you are absent, quizzes and/or classwork missed cannot be made up. More than 4 unexcused absences, without discussing with me first, may result in your removal from the class.  If you have the need to miss several classes, please make sure to be in communication with me.  I am very unlikely to dop a student who has a legitimate reason for missing class and has communicated that reason to me.
