Exam, Quiz
and Attendance Policy: In order to be fair to all students,
dates of quizzes and exams are firm.
It is very important to take each exam on schedule. Missed work may be made up only due to
illness with medical documentation or for other unusual (documented)
circumstances. (See your Student
Rights and Responsibilities http://www.uky.edu/StudentAffairs/Code/). Students who have university excused
absences or who have university-scheduled class conflicts with uniform
examinations may arrange with their instructor to take the exam at an alternate
time. Generally these make-up exams will be scheduled on the same day as the
regularly scheduled exam from 7:30-9:30 PM. Work-related conflicts are neither
university excused absences or university-scheduled absences. If you miss an
exam, you receive a zero. You will
be eligible for a make-up only if you present a valid excuse to me before the
exam. If you cannot find a reasonable arrangement for a make-up, contact the
departmental Ombudsman, TBA. If you miss 4 recitation sections your cumulative
score drops by 10%, i.e., from A to B. If you miss 5 recitation sections your
cumulative score drops 15%; if you miss 6 recitation sections you lose 20%,
e.g., A to C. If you miss 7 or more recitation sections you get an E. This
policy begins the week of Sept. 10, 2007
Excused
Absences: S.R.
5.2.4.2 defines the following as acceptable reasons for excused
absences:
- serious
illness;
- illness
or death of family member;
- University-related
trips;
- major
religious holidays;
- other
circumstances you find to be "reasonable cause for nonattendance."
Students anticipating an
absence for a major religious holiday are responsible for notifying the
instructor in writing of anticipated absences due to their observance of such
holidays no later than the last day for adding a class. Information regarding
dates of major religious holidays may be
obtained through the religious liaison, Mr. Jake Karnes
(257-2754).
