Grievances and Complaints Procedures:
A student who has a complaint related to this course should follow the procedues summarized below. The full policy on student complaints is on-line in the College's Student Academic Handbook.
- The student should attempt to resolve the matter with the instructor first. Students may talk first to someone other than the instructor if they do not feel, for whatever reason, that they can directly approach the instructor.
- If the complaint is not resolved to the student's satisfaction, the student should go to the course supervisor (if the instructor is a teaching assistant) or to the departmental executive officer.
- If the matter remains unresolved, the student may submit a written complaint to the associate dean for academic programs.
Your responsibilities to this class, and to your education as a whole, include attendance and participation. You have a responsibility to help create a classroom environment where all may learn. At the most basic level, this means you will respect the other members of the class and the instructor and treat them with the courtesy you hope to receive in return. Inappropriate classroom behavior may include, but is not limited to: disruption of the classroom atmosphere, for example by sleeping or by reading non-class materials; engaging in non-class activities, for instance, talking on a cell phone, working on another assignment, and so on; inappropriate use of profanity in classroom discussion; use of abusive or disrespectful language toward the instructor, a student in the class, or about other individuals or groups.
Academic Dishonesty:
A student must submit original work of his or her own construction. Academic dishonesty in the form of copying assignments, projects, or exams from other students or sources is not permitted. If you have any questions about what constitues academic dishonesty, please contact your professor or consult the printed policy in the Schedule of Courses and the CLAS Bulletin. This course is given by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. This means that class policies on matters such as requirements, grading, and sanctions for academic dishonesty are governed by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Students wishing to add or drop this course after the official deadline must receive the approval of the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
