Attendance:
Attendance in class (as in life) is essential if you wish to do well. As a result, attendance is mandatory. Arriving late,
leaving early or failing to attend class will directly (and adversely) affect your grade as described below. Students are
allowed one excused absence per term to allow for illness or personal circumstances.

EACH UNEXCUSED ABSENCE WILL RESULT IN YOUR FINAL GRADE BEING REDUCED BY 5%.
Late Arrival = ½ Absence Early Departure = ½ Absence Each Full (1) Absence = 5% reduction in final grade
