Subsection 5.2 Attendance Policy

Students are expected to adhere to the Class Attendance Policy outlined in the ULM Student Policy Manual.

Class attendance is regarded as an obligation and a privilege, and all students are expected to attend all required classes in which they are enrolled regularly and punctually. Failure to do so may jeopardize a student’s scholastic standing and may lead to suspension from the University. Students are responsible for the effect absences have on all forms of evaluating course performance.
In accordance with University policy, the instructor will take roll regularly. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that his/her attendance is recorded.
Each student is solely responsible for all class material and assignments whether or not the student is present.
A student accumulating absences of 25% of the class meetings regardless of the reasons (excused or unexcused) will be reported to the Dean of Arts, Education, & Sciences which could result in academic withdrawal from the course or a course grade of F.
- This may be avoided if the course is dropped; however, it is the responsibility of the student to drop the course.
- Class removal carries with it the penalties of being assigned a grade of W or F, whichever is appropriate, and no credit for the course.
- Academic withdrawal may negatively impact a student’s full-time status.
University Excuses: Any University-related activity requiring an absence from class will count as an absence when determining if a student has met the minimum attendance requirement.
Only students registered in MATH 1031 may attend the lectures.
Only students registered in mathematics courses may enter the Math Resource Center (MRC).

Subsection 5.3 Late Policy

Late work will not be accepted. Students who cannot submit work due to a University-related activity requiring an absence from class must arrange for work to be submitted before leaving.

Subsection 5.4 Make-up Policy

In the event of a missed assessment due to absence, students will be given the opportunity to attempt all missed standards on the next reassessment. The date and time of the final reassessment are determined by the registrar and cannot be made up.

Subsection 5.5 Academic Integrity

Faculty and students must observe the ULM published policy on Academic Dishonesty. See the ULM Student Handbook — https://www.ulm.edu/studenthandbook/

Any student caught turning in work that is not his/her own will be reported to the School of Sciences. If the student is found to be responsible for such a violation, then a formal report will be made to the Office of Student Services and the student will receive a grade of F for the course.

Subsection 5.6 Course Evaluation Policy

At a minimum, students are expected to complete the online course evaluation using the Online Course Evaluation system https://www.ulm.edu/evaluations/.
