As a college student enrolled in an academic course, you are expected to adhere to the standards of behavior outlined in the Student Code of Conduct and the Scholastic Ethics Code. In particular, you are expected to cooperate with instructors in the performance of their duties and to refrain from obstructing other students in their pursuit of education.
In addition,
- Learning mathematics requires a time investment on the part of the students. An average time investment is two to three hours per unit per week (e.g. nine hours per week for a three-unit class) in addition to the time spent in class.
- If you are absent from class for any reason, you have assumed the responsibility for learning on your own the material presented in that class, obtaining a copy of the notes, assignments, any announcement made in class, and coming prepared to the next class.
- You are responsible for knowing the information on the class syllabus given to you by your instructor.
- In a class where homework is collected, it must be submitted when requested by the instructor, using the format specified by the instructor.
- You must be officially enrolled to attend classes. If you miss more than three classes you may be withdrawn for non-attendance. A student may also be withdrawn from the class due to disruptive behavior; such behavior includes, but is not limited to, talking during lecture. (See Student Code of Conduct.)
- Certain electronic devices - cellular phones, radios, tape or disc players and the like - should not be brought into the classroom. Pagers must be set to vibrate.
- Cheating is grounds for dismissal from class and a grade of F. (See Scholastic Ethics Code.)
- Incomplete (I) grades are rarely awarded and are always at the discretion of the instructor. Very exceptional circumstances must be present, and the student requesting an I must currently be passing the course with a grade of C or better.
