Attendance


Attendance at all regularly scheduled meetings of a course is expected. The course instructor is expected to state in writing the attendance requirements for each course. The recognized grounds for absence are illness requiring medical attention, curricular or extracurricular activities approved by the faculty, personal obligations claimed by the student and recognized as valid, recognized religious holidays, and severe inclement weather causing dangerous traveling conditions.

The president of the university or an official appointed by the president is authorized to cancel classes, or any part thereof, in the event that weather conditions so dictate.
