Attendance: In this class, we will frequently discuss issues and concepts that cannot be found in the assigned readings. Therefore, your attendance is required. If you miss class, it is your responsibility to get class notes or other necessary information from a fellow student.

Make-ups: Unexcused late assignments may be made up. However, I deduct 10 percent per 24-hour period after the assignment is due.

Tardiness: Coming to class a few minutes late once or twice is no crisis. However, I reserve the right to alter your assignment requirements if you are excessively tardy.

Students with Disabilities: If you need course adaptations because of a disability, if you have emergency medical information to share with me, or if you need special arrangements in case the building must be evacuated, please make an appointment with me as soon as possible, or see me during office hours.

Academic Honesty: Academic misconduct will not be tolerated in my class. The use of another person's ideas as your own without providing proper credit will result in your failing my class. See the SJSU catalog or talk with me if you have any questions.
