Missed Assignments:  If no arrangement is made in advance with the instructor, students missing a test or quiz may be given, at the option of the instructor, a zero on the test or assignment.  Students anticipating the need to take a test or quiz at a time other than that scheduled or to turn in an assignment late must make arrangements with the instructor in advance.  In an emergency where advance notification is impossible, appropriate documentation supporting the excuse should be provided.   

Religious Events:  Students who anticipate being absent from class due to a major religious observance must provide written notice of the date(s) and event(s) to the instructor by the second class meeting.

Registration: Assignments of students not on the official class roll will be discarded without grading.

Academic Dishonesty:  No collaboration whatsoever is allowed on any of the tests or quizzes.  Any student found in violation of this policy may be given a “FF” for the course at the option of the instructor and at minimum will be given a zero for the assignment.  It is the responsibility of each student to understand and follow this policy.
