- Appointments (Conferences outside of office hours): open; contact me.
I am willing to help students individually in my office unless you are three assignments behind, in which case I may drop you from the course for lack of progress. This does not mean that I am responsible to drop you. That is still your responsibility. Students are entitled to privacy; therefore, if I am working with a student, go to the office area closest to the hall to wait. Do not wait directly outside of my office where you can hear. That area is office space and not a work area for students. Additionally, you may email me directly. - ALERT: New state law for new students. No more than six course withdrawals throughout your undergraduate education, regardless of how many colleges you attend. Students who entered college before fall 2007 are not affected. Ask a counselor for details.
- A grade of "I" will be assigned at the discretion of the instructor only for extreme emergencies. The instructor will not consider assigning an "I" if the student is not current or if the circumstances are not compelling. If you are required to be a full-time student for any reason, then it is your responsibility to remain current to keep from being dropped.
- A grade of "W" will be assigned if the student initiates a withdrawal through the Admissions and Records office, in accordance with the requirements of that office. Although the instructor has the prerogative to withdraw students for excessive absences or lack of progress, she is under no obligation to do so. It is the responsibility of the student and not the responsibility of the instructor to initiate all withdrawal proceedings. If a student fails to complete the work and also fails to properly withdraw, a grade of A, B, C, D or F will be assigned in accordance with the work which is completed. Generally those students who simply stop completing assignments or do not take exams without proper withdrawal will be assigned an F.
- Each student is encouraged to participate in the class discussion group. 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 others when expressed in classroom discussions. The class discussion group is considered class discussion.
- Acts prohibited by the college for which discipline may be administered include scholastic dishonesty, including but not limited to cheating on an exam or quiz, plagiarizing, and unauthorized collaboration with another in preparing outside work. Academic work submitted by students should be the result of their thought, research or self-expression. Academic work is defined as, but not limited to tests, quizzes, whether taken electronically or on paper; projects, either individual or group; classroom presentations, and homework (Current Student Handbook).
- Each ACC campus offers support services for students with documented physical or psychological disabilities. Students with disabilities must 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 (Current Student Handbook).
