Class attendance is an important part of the academic process and should be considered both a privilege and a responsibility. The professor of a course has the right to dismiss any disruptive student during any class session. Absences should be taken only for important and necessary reasons.

Attendance Policy

Each student has a responsibility to meet the university's standards in pursuing academic study. The university calendar provides instructional dates for teachers and students; students are expected to attend class regularly for the entire semester.

Arrangements for any absence should be handled between you and your instructor. Students are never "excused' from their course work because of absences. Consult the course syllabus on the policies for making up work because of an illness or other absence. Students should not make travel plans that begin before the end of finals week.

Absence Due to Illness

As soon as an illness is known to affect class attendance or performance, students are expected to contact professors. Documentation of extended illness is issued by the Student Life Office or Health and Counseling Services only to students who have been seen by or contacted the medical staff during their illness and whose illness has prevented class attendance for at least three consecutive days. Students should contact the Office of Student Life or Health and Counseling Services for assistance.

Documentation of illness may be necessary for substantiating requests for late withdrawal, etc. as required in the academic petition process.
