I. Attendance:
• Regular class attendance is expected for all students at the University. You are not required but advised to attend all classes.
• Please send your professor a brief e-mail to explain your absence in advance.
• Your absence will not reduce your attendance rate if and only if you have a legitimate reason for missing a class (such as illness, death in family, a traffic accident, etc.). In case of an illness or emergency, you must supply a formal documentation that supports your claim.
• Classes start on the hour. Please be respectful of your classmates by being on time.
• All electronic equipment should be turned off and kept out of sight before lecture starts.

III. Late Submission Policy:
Late submissions will not be graded. There will be no make-up for quizzes and homework/ assignments. Missed assignments and quizzes will result in a grade of zero (0).
IV. Participation:
In their book, The Adult Student's Guide to Survival & Success, Al Siebert and Mary Karr suggest that the most effective learning technique of all is to study by asking and answering questions. Develop the habit of reading textbooks, taking lecture notes, and studying by asking and answering questions. When you do this, you save many hours of studying and have time to spend with your family or friends.
There are several ways to go about asking and answering questions.
When studying on your own, write questions that occur to you while you're reading and then go
back and find the answers.
If you're part of a study group, make a list of questions to ask the group.
In the classroom, participate fully by asking questions and answering the ones posed by your instructor.
Be curious. Ask questions
