It is the policy of the university to excuse without penalty
students who are absent because of religious observances and to allow
the makeup of work missed because of such absence. Examinations and
special required out-of-class activities ordinarily will not be
scheduled on those days when such students refrain from participating
in secular activities. Absences for reasons of religious obligation
will not be counted for purposes of reporting. A student absent from an
examination because of required religious observance will be given an
opportunity to make up the examination without penalty.
