Participation: Students are expected to participate in all courses and course activities for which they are registered.

Students are expected to adhere to the policies set by each Professor.
Students, when officially representing the College, such as on a field trip, shall not be counted absent, provided their professors are given prior notification and any missed assignments are subsequently completed to each professor’s
satisfaction.
Students will be granted excused absences in the case of a substantiated emergency such as a confining illness, a serious accident or the death of an immediate relative. Professors decide on the validity of the excuses and provide opportunities for students to complete any required make-up work. Students are responsible for immediately informing their professors when they must miss class sessions for emergency meetings.
