Absences

Observance of Religious Holy day

A student who misses an examination, work assignment, or other required project due to an observance of a religious holy day will be given the opportunity to complete the work missed within a reasonable time after the absence. It is the student's responsibility to provide proper notification to all class instructors for the day of the absence. Although a student who is excused under this policy may not be penalized for the absence, the instructor may appropriately respond if the student fails to satisfactorily complete the assignment or examination

University Authorized Absence

In accordance with authorized University activities (such as athletic events or scholastic activities that are officially sponsored by the University) notification by a designated individual of the activity will be made for all student participants of that activity. It is the student's responsibility to notify each instructor of his or her absence should an examination or work assignment be missed on the day of absence. An instructor is under no obligation to accommodate a student who is absent or misses work assignments without prior notification and make-up arrangements.
