Learning to meet deadlines is critical to career success and functioning in society. You are allowed one extension request during the course. Extensions are for up to one week and are allowed because life events happen. No more than one extension will be allowed per course per semester. Arrangement must include both the verbal and written consent of the instructor. If you are sick, you must call (leave a message) and send an email prior to class to let your instructor know that you will not be in for that day. Students with habitual car trouble, childcare problems, missed alarms and the like will not be excused. It is your responsibility to attend every class. The instructor will evaluate of your attendance habits throughout the semester. The best way to learn is through curiosity driven experience and the second-best way to learn is to teach others. Plan to teach someone else the things that you learn. ATTENDANCE: The Technical & Industrial Division s attendance policy includes three steps in the following sequence: Step One: 12 hours absence When the student reaches 12 hours of absence, the Division sends a letter to the student to express concern about the student s ability to successfully complete the required coursework. A recommendation is made that the student schedule an appointment to meet with the advisor/faculty member to discuss the attendance. Step Two: 20 hours absence When the student reaches 20 hours of absence, the Division sends a letter to the student requiring the student to schedule an appointment with the advisor/faculty member and the Division Chair to discuss the attendance problem. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss any extenuating circumstances relating to the absences and to inform the student of his/her responsibilities required to remain in the program. Additional terms may be developed which are required of the student due to excessive absences, and will be written in the division s absences-contract. A copy of the contract will be provided for signatures of the student, advisor/faculty member, and Division Chair. If the student refuses to sign the contract, indicating noncompliance, he/she will not be allowed to re-enroll in courses in the Technical and Industrial Division for at least one semester. Step Three: 30 hours absence When the student reaches 30 hours of absence and/or fails to comply with arrangements made in step three, the Division sends a notice to the Registrar barring the student from registration in courses in the Technical and Industrial Division the following semester. If the student meets the terms of the contract, is allowed to reenroll and the attendance problem recurs, the advisor/faculty member may recommend that the student not be enrolled in a Technical and Industrial program for at least one semester.
