COURSE POLICIES
- Grading
- No incomplete will be given except according to College policy, namely, "only when unusual circumstances beyond the control of the student prevent giving a specific grade." This implies earlier course requirements, e.g., exams or papers have been completed satisfactorily.
- Graduating seniors, if they have an A or a B in the course may, if they so wish, skip the third examination.
- Examinations and Papers
Exams will be given only when scheduled, and papers are due by their deadline, unless
- an unexpected emergency occurs, and
- you inform me of this orally and before the exam or deadline:
395-7589 (office)
395-7590 (History Secretary)
392-4727 (home)
- Attendance
- The student is responsible for all material presented in class, including lectures, discussion, visual materials, and dropped hints.
- Regular class attendance is expected. Where appropriate, participation is also expected. Substantial nonattendance renders a student liable to having his or her grade lowered.
- Academic Integrity
Read in the Hope College Catalog, pp. 77-78.
The statement therein assumes a covenant relationship between instructors and students. Elements of this covenant include not only common expectations about academic honesty, but a joint agreement to perform at our best. As with all covenants there is, therefore, an expectation of mutual responsibility and mutual blessing.
