Attendance and Tardies. Active participation in class activities and discussion reinforces student learning. Therefore, student attendance is essential. Students are allowed absences that will not affect the final grade. There is no distinction between an “excused” and an “unexcused” absence. Leaving class early or arriving late three ties will count as one absence for each three occurrences.
Student Freedom of Expression. “Each student is strongly encouraged to participate in class. In any classroom situation that includes discussion and critical thinking, there are bound to be many differing viewpoints. These differences enhance the learning experience and create an atmosphere where students and instructors alike will be encouraged to think and learn. On sensitive and volatile topics, students may sometimes disagree not only with each other but also with the instructor. It is expected that faculty and students will respect the views of other when expressed in classroom discussions”.
Lack of Progress/Withdrawal. It is the student’s responsibility to withdraw from the course if they determine that they are unable to complete assignments or exams as scheduled or with the grade they desired.
Pagers and Cellular Phones. Pagers, cellular phones and similar devices are disruptive and must be turned off during class.
Scholastic Dishonesty. “Acts prohibited by the College for which discipline may be administered include scholastic dishonesty, including but not limited to cheating ob an exam or quiz, plagiarizing, and unauthorized collaboration with another in preparing outside work. Academic work submitted by students shall be the result of their thought, research or self-expression. Academic work is defined as, but not limited to test, quizzes, whether taken electronically or on paper; projects, either individual or group; classroom presentations, and homework. Students found guilty of scholastic dishonesty will be assessed an appropriate penalty up to and including expulsion.
Students with Disability. “Each ACC campus offers support services for students with documented physical or psychological disabilities. Students will disabilities but request reasonable accommodations through the Office for Students with Disabilities on the campus where they expect to take the majority of their classes. Students are encouraged to do this three weeks before the start of the semester.”
Incomplete Grade Policy. An incomplete (I) grade will be granted rarely. A student must have completed all exams and assignments to date, be passing, and have circumstances that prevent course completion that occur after the deadline to withdraw with a grade of “W”. All work to complete the course must be completed before the end of the following semester for the granting of an appropriate grade. Failure to do so will result in a failing grade for the course.
