Academic Policies
Attendance
Students are expected to attend all class sessions of each course taken.
When a student cannot attend a class, he/she is expected to:
Contact the instructor prior to the absence to explain the reason for
the absence.
Make provisions to obtain class notes and any other information that was
missed.
Any student missing three classes may have his/her grade lowered. A
student missing four or more classes will be given an incomplete grade
of "I" and that part of the course must be retaken. Emergency situations
such as illness or a death in the family will always be taken into
consideration by the instructor. Students taking summer classes or
seminars may have more stringent policies, as stated by the instructor.
Course Load

A graduate student who holds a full-time position of employment may
register for no more than two (2) courses and six (6) semester hours for
