Course Policies

Exams. All exams are to be taken in class on the designated exam dates. No make-up exams are allowed, except in the case of an extreme emergency. In the rare event that an emergency arises, it is the student's responsibility to: (1) inform the instructor prior to the scheduled exam time and (2) provide the instructor with written documentation of the emergency (e.g., medical note from a certified physician). Examples of events that do not qualify as emergencies include: conflicts with work schedules, important family vacations, etc.

Written Work. All written work is to be turned in during class on the designated due date. Late reports will result in a 10% grade reduction each and every day that they are late (expect in the case of an extreme emergency). In the rare event that an emergency arises, it is the student's responsibility to: (1) inform the instructor prior to the scheduled due date and (2) provide the instructor with written documentation of the emergency (e.g., medical note from a certified physician). Examples of events that do not qualify as emergencies include: computer crashes, sleeping through alarm clocks, etc.

Academic Honesty. All coursework should reflect your own effort or others’ contributions should be properly acknowledged. For complete information regarding academic honesty as it pertains to this course, please refer to the guidelines specified in DePaul’s Student Handbook and Faculty Guidebook.

Sexual Harassment. All members of the academic community should take steps to create an environment where sexual harassment does not occur. DePaul’s policy regarding harassment as specified in the Faculty Guidebook will be enforced.

Disabled Students. Students with disabilities are encouraged to talk to me early in the quarter so that we can collaborate on learning and test taking strategies.
