A. Purpose: To expose the student to a wide variety of techniques and aspects of the
commercial music field.
B. Absence Policy: Students should not miss class. They will be held responsible for any
materials covered on days missed. Tests may not be made up except in cases of extenuating
circumstances. Projects turned in after the due date will be lowered one letter grade for each
class session they are late.
E. As a member of the learning community, each student has a responsibility to other students
who are members of the community. When cell phones or pagers ring and students respond in
class or leave class to respond, it disrupts the class. Therefore, the Office of Academic Affairs
prohibits the use by students of cell phones, pagers, or similar communication devices during
scheduled classes. All such devices must be turned off or put in a silent mode and cannot be
taken out during class. Violation of this policy may include a student being dismissed from the
class. In testing situations, use of cell phones or similar communication devices may lead also
to a charge of academic dishonesty and additional sanctions under the Student Academic
Integrity Policies and Procedures. For more information, please see

F. If you are a student with a disability and anticipate barriers related to this course, it is important to
request accommodations and establish an accommodation plan with the University. Please contact the
Disability Resource Center (DRC) (https://www.missouristate.edu/disability/), Meyer Library, Suite 111,
417-836-4192, to initiate the process to establish your accommodation plan. The DRC will work with you
to establish your accommodation plan, or it may refer you to other appropriate resources based on the
nature of your disability. In order to prepare an accommodation plan, the University usually requires that
students provide documentation relating to their disability. Please be prepared to provide such
documentation if requested. Once a University accommodation plan is established, you may notify the class
instructor of approved accommodations. If you wish to utilize your accommodation plan, it is suggested
that you do so in a timely manner, preferably within the first two weeks of class. Early notification to the
instructor allows for full benefit of the accommodations identified in the plan. Instructors will not receive
the accommodation plan until you provide that plan, and are not required to apply accommodations
retroactively.
Total Points=700.
H. There will be no smoking, food, or drink in the electronic studio. Only students enrolled in
MUS 629 or in composition courses, or guest performers (who have been approved by the
course instructor) will be in the studio at any time. All equipment is to be treated with respect and
is to be left in a normalized state at the conclusion of all lab sessions. Any personally-owned
equipment should be removed before the next student(s) use the lab. Offenders of these
policies may be dismissed from the course.
I. It is helpful if students who take this course have prior experience working with the recording
equipment in this studio, or similar equipment.
