| VI. Policies: | |||||||||
| A. Attendance Policy: | |||||||||
| Pellissippi
State Technical Community College expects students to attend all scheduled
instructional activities. As a minimum, students in all courses must
be present for at least 75 percent of their scheduled class and laboratory
meetings in order to receive credit for the course (Pellissippi State Catalog).
Individual departments/programs/disciplines, with the approval of the vice
president of Academic and Student Affairs, may have requirements that are
more stringent.
Regular attendance in this course is required. Students who miss the equivalent of 10% of classroom hours may, at the discretion of the instructor, be dropped one letter grade. Students who arrive late for class after the roll has been taken, have the responsibility of seeing the instructor after class to change their status from A (absent) to T (tardy). |
|||||||||
| B. Academic Dishonesty: | |||||||||
| The policy outlined in the Student Handbook (found in the PSTCC catalog) will be followed in the event of cheating. | |||||||||
