Policies

Students are expected to:

  • Attend each class. Each student is allowed ONE unexcused absence per semester. If a student misses class, it is HIS/HER responsibility to submit a doctor's certificate during the first class after the absence. More than one unexcused absence will result in failing the course. Presentations missed because of absence must be made up during the first class after the absence.
  • Attend each class having prepared assignments according to the class schedule. Failure to prepare assignments TWICE per semester will result in failing the course.
  • Give all required presentations; write all papers. Papers will be presented in the form of computer printouts; apart from that, electronic versions will be sent to the the instructor's email address, jkrybicki(at)gmail.com. A penalty of 30% will be deducted for late papers.
  • Exhibit a presence of the mind as well as of the body (see 1.). Each student should take an ACTIVE part in each class. Inactivity will be treated as an unexcused absence.
