Please note the following: (changes in syllabus may occur)
 

  1. Show Up: Regular attendance is expected. Attending classes is critical to student success. If you can’t show up, please inform me one day before.

 

  1. Be On Time: Arriving late and leaving early are better than not showing up at all, however both are disruptive to the instructor and your classmates. Arrive on time and stay for the full class period. If you have an emergency and need to leave early, please inform me one day before, or if needed, before class starts to explain the situation.

 

  1. Instructors Are Not Oblivious: Students seem unaware of how easily I can see what each student is doing during class. Doing other work, playing with your phone etc. is very obvious and disrespectful. These types of activities are inappropriate and self-defeating. Attendance in the form of just filling a seat will not earn you a successful grade. I notice mental absences too!

 

  1. Unplug: Cell Phones and Texting: If you must carry a cell phone to class, it should be on vibrate and inside your bag. Having electronic devices go off during class is disruptive to me and your classmates. Texting during class is rude and inappropriate and should never be done. If you chose to text during class, don’t be surprised if I ask you to leave the class. However, if you have to take an important phone call, please raise your hand and excuse your self.

 

  1. Crk It: Talking to friends is disruptive to both myself and to your classmates. It may be easy to think that others seated near you will not mind a little mindless chatter; however many students are offended by the distraction. When I’m prepared for class to begin; students should stop talking and focus their attention on the topic for the course.

 

  1. Not Chow Time: If a student has no lunch break, it may be acceptable to eat or drink inconspicuously in class. If food or drink is brought into the class, the student is responsible for discarding the trash and cleaning up any spills.

 

  1. You Are Not the Only Person in the Classroom: Be courteous in the same way you would like me and your classmates to be courteous to you.

 
 

  1. You Miss It You Find a Way to Get It: If you miss class or arrive late, it is your responsibility to obtain the information that you missed from other students or my self. It is not my responsibility to check to see that you get assignments or handouts that you may have missed.
