Attitude - This course is discussion-intensive and student-centered. Please bring openness of mind and heart, willingness to state and discuss your honest opinions, respect for others, and enthusiasm for individual and collective learning.
Attendance - Because this course is based on class interaction, attendance is crucial. Please come talk to me if you are having difficulties meeting your responsibilities. Excessive absences will result in a failing grade.
Plagiarism - I do not tolerate plagiarism, which I view as a sign of disrespect to yourself and others; I am interested in your ideas. At the first sign of plagiarism, I will talk to you. Any further evidence of p lagiarism will result in a failing grade.
Incompletes - Please do not ask for an Incomplete grade unless your situation falls under the Registrar's guidelines, which are as follows: An "I" grade is intended to be only an interim course mark. It is to be used only if a student has satisfactorily (hereby defined as a C average or better) completed at least 75% of the course requirements, and there is an excusable reason for his/her not having completed all requirements prior to grade reporting time.
