behavior |
- You are expected to arrive on time to class. Arriving late is
disruptive and considered to be rude. I reserve the right to deduct
from your final grade if you are repeatedly tardy.
- Once class has begun you are expected to remain in your seat for the
duration of the class lecture. You are not permitted to randomly get up
for drinks, visits to the restroom, pick up a print out or to generally
wander around the classroom during lecture.
- Once class has begun you are expected to be quiet and respectful to
the person lecturing. If you need to discuss something with a fellow
classmate you should do it after class.
- Cell phones, beepers & watches must be turned off during class/ lab
time.
