Integrity:
You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you
and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honorably.
Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all
you can give. Edward O. Wilson
DROPS,

AND AUDIT
POLICIES:
Last day to drop the course and receive a full refund is September 4th
at 5pm.
As faculty members, I may initiate a drop or withdrawal for students
who fail to meet the course participation and assignment
requirements through November 13th. Students who also find that
their work is not meeting their own performance expectations may
also choose to withdraw before November 13th. This will designate a
W on the student transcript and will not be calculated in the grade
point average. Students should be aware that a W can impact financial
aid.
An I (Incomplete) is a temporary grade. It is used to indicate that a
student has made satisfactory progress in the majority (>50%) of the
work in a course, but for unavoidable absences or other conditions
beyond the control of the student, has not been able to complete the
course.
