GRADING & ATTENDANCE: Attendance at all class meetings is required. In cases of
emergencies or illness, the student is expected to inquire about notes from other members of the
class, and to complete any assigned work. All class materials will be available at the class
website. More than one unexcused absences will result in automatically lowering the final grade
by a letter or further. Remember this class only meets once a week.

Unexcused absences will impact your final grade. 1 unexcused absences = 1 letter grade
reduction. Each subsequent absence is also a letter grade reduction.
