Outline
Design ("Lecture") milestones:
Computer/Internet usage: While it is my general policy to let other students use available computers during my
classes, it is expected that students enrolled in the course are actively participating in the course. Therefore,
during class time computer usage should be reserved for class activities. Misuse, according to my judgment, is a
factor in grading.
Class cancellation: Class cancellations by the instructor will be posted via an announcement sent directly to
your student email account. Cancellations due to inclement weather will be posted on the CCC website and the
main page of MyCCC. It is the students responsibility to check these sources on a regular basis.
Attendance is mandatory: Attendance is expected. Repeated tardiness will be considered absence. Absence
and tardiness is a factor in grading.
Students with Disability Information: Students with learning, physical, or psychological disabilities who wish to
receive accommodations for this course must contact the Office of Student Disability Services at 607-962-9262
or at [email protected]. Students are required to self-identify by making a formal request for services, and to
provide current documentation that reflects the nature of the disability. Reasonable accommodations in the
classroom will be provided for students with appropriately documented disabilities. Confidentiality will be
maintained at all times.
Withdrawal: Students have 15 days to drop without a record of this course on their transcript, and they have
through Oct 29th to drop with a W (no effect on GPA). Dropping must be performed by submitting an online
drop request through MyCCC. It is the students responsibility to drop the course if appropriate. Due to financial
aid ramifications, I will not drop students.
Office visits required: At least two office visits are required with one within the first two weeks of the course
and the second between the fourth and the ninth week of the course. Lack of office visits is a factor in grading.
