CLASS POLICY

1.	Student Responsibility
a.	Attendance
1.	If you are not here when roll is taken — you are tardy or absent.
2.	If you miss four classes, the instructor may drop you.
3.	If you cannot attend class, students are advised to have another student in the class pick up handouts and share notes, etc.
4.	Attending class is for registered students only.
b.	Dropping class
1.	It is ultimately the student’s responsibility to drop a class they no longer intend to participate in, to avoid receiving a “F” grade.
c.	Academic success
1.	In order to succeed at the highest level in college, be sure to utilize
the Reedley College services that are available.
a.	Tutorial
b.	Disabled Student Services
c.	Computer lab
d.	Library
e.	Counseling
2.	College success means planning ahead and scheduling everything.
d.	Accommodation for student with disabilities
1.	If you have any special needs as addressed by the American with Disabilities (ADA) act including alternate media requests, please notify your course instructor immediately. Reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate your special needs.
e.	Respect
1.	Students are expected to manage their schedule and arrive on time.
2.	If you need to leave early, notify the instructor ahead of time.
3.	Because of the large student load, it is helpful to have important questions or comments submitted in writing. A sticky note works well.
4.	Instructor set-up time - 10 minutes prior to class beginning is the instructors set up time, therefore individual questions would be better addressed during office hours.
5.	Instructor schedule — the instructor may not be able to stay after class on certain days. Please respect the instructors teaching schedule and see me during office hours.
•	I have an open door policy during office hours. If I am on the phone or with another student, please wait patiently.
6.	If you would like a copy of something, allow 2-5 days for processing.
7.	Please turn off cell phones and pagers during class time.
8.	TIMING IS EVERYTHING — use common sense and consideration.

2.	Class Work
1.	Assignments are to be turned in on time. Late assignments are not accepted.
