Class Participation Policy & Student Conduct A. Policy of this Department: Students are expected to attend all lectures and labs. If a student misses more than 20% of the class periods, the instructor will assign the student an F. This policy does not affect the right of the student to drop a course before the mandated deadline or the right of the instructor to assign, with approval of the department chair, an IP under the appropriate extenuating circumstances. Responsibility for dropping a course lies solely with the student. B. Instructor s Policy:
Course Syllabus Page 4 I will enforce the department s participation policy. Cell phones allowed in the class room under certain circumstances. 72 hour grace period for late assignments Assignments over 72 hours late will not be accepted and assigned a grade of zero. Anyone over fifteen minutes late will be counted as absent. An attendance of under 80% will result in automatic failure of the class. C. Integrity: You are expected to maintain absolute integrity in all scholastic work. This is true in the workplace as well. Therefore, learn and practice it now. As stated in the Student Code of Conduct, TSTC Catalogue: Any attempt on your part to receive credit for work other than your own by cheating, plagiarizing, or collusion will be the basis for disciplinary action. An accessory to an act of cheating shares the guilt with the principal, and is dealt with in the same manner. This means a zero will be received on the exam or assignment and/or a failing grade in the course, and/or removal from the program. D. Behavior: Students are expected to behave in a manner that is respectful of others in the class. Disruptive behaviors will not be tolerated. You will be asked to leave and will not be allowed to make up any work missed. Continual disruption will result in permanent removal from class. X. Safety Campus building occupants are required to evacuate buildings when a fire alarm activates. Alarm activation or announcement requires exiting and assembling outside. Familiarize yourself with all exit doors of each classroom and building you may occupy while receiving instructions. The nearest exit door may not be the door you used when entering the building. Students requiring evacuation assistance should inform the instructor during the first week of class. In the event of evacuation, follow the faculty s or class instructor s instructions. Do Not re-enter a building unless given instructions by the Fire Department, Campus/Local Police, or Fire Prevention Services. XI. Special Needs Students with Disabilities: If you have a documented disability that will impact your work in this class, please contact the ADA Coordinator, so that appropriate arrangements for your accommodations can be made. The counselor on your campus can assist you in this process. In accordance with the federal law, a student requesting accommodations must provide documentation of his/her disability to the ADA Coordinator. For more information call (325) 236-8292 or email amy.freeman@tstc.edu.
