Policies

Academic Integrity Policy

Students and all other who work with information, ideas, texts, images, music, inventions, and other intellectual property owe their audience and sources accuracy and honesty in using, crediting, and citing sources.  As a community of intellectual and professional workers, the College recognizes its responsibility for providing instruction in information literacy and academic integrity, offering models of good practice, and responding vigilantly and appropriately to infractions of academic integrity.

Accordingly, academic dishonestly is prohibited in The City University of New York and at New York City College of Technology and is punishable by penalties, including failing grades, suspension, or expulsion

 

Attendance Policy:  

You are permitted to be absent from class a maximum of two classes.  Any student who exceeds the maximum number of permitted absences will receive a grade of “WU” for the course, regardless of class grade.  Attendance is taken at the very beginning of class, students are responsible for insuring that they have been marked present for each class.

This is in accordance with college policy that sets the maximum number of permissible absences at 10% of the number of class meetings scheduled for the semester.

 

Late Policy:

Any student who arrives after attendance has been taken will be considered late.

• Two tardies will count as one absence.
• After being late twice, you will lose 1 point from your final grade for every following tardy.

In the event of an emergency, which constitutes an excused absence, the student must contact me as soon as possible and provide me with the proper documentation.

 

Quizes

No Make-ups for missed quizzes! Only in extreme emergencies and if schedule permits!

• You must send me an e-mail before the start of the quiz.  If you do not contact me, NO make-up will be given and you will receive a Grade of ZERO (0) for the missed quiz. In all cases you should come to me the first day you return to class to discuss.
