Proposed School of Business Class Policies

“NC” (No Credit):
“NC” will not be given after the 10th week of class. Please refer to Registration Dates/Deadlines in current semester Class Schedule for actual “NC” dates. “NC” forms are available in the office of Registrar, CN 105. Students are responsible for submitting completed forms on time to the Office of the Registrar.

“I” (Incomplete):
The “I” designation will only be given in cases where the course has been substantially completed with a passing grade, and the student has been unable to finish the course through no fault of his/her own. The “I” will automatically become an “F” at the end of one year. However, your instructor may establish an earlier deadline, in writing, and may change the “I” to an “F” at that designated time if the course work has not been satisfactorily completed.

Class Attendance:
Students are expected to attend all sessions of courses for which they are registered. Each instructor determines when a student’s absences have reached a point at which they jeopardize success in a course. When absences become excessive, the student may receive a failing grade for the course or be administratively dropped. Students failing to attend the initial two sessions of a class may also be administratively dropped.

Religious Holidays:
If a student needs to miss a class for a religious holiday observance, please notify the instructor in writing during the first two weeks of the semester so that the absence may be excused. Failure to do so may result in an unauthorized absence.

Special Needs:
Students desiring a reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) must contact the Disability Services Office (DSO) to discuss their needs. Failure to notify the DSO promptly, of the need for a reasonable accommodation, may hinder the college’s ability to assist students in successfully completing the course. It is the responsibility of the student to assure that DSO documentation for reasonable accommodation is provided to the instructor in a timely manner. NOTE: The DSO is the sole authority that may authorize reasonable accommodations by the instructor.

Final Examinations:
It is the general policy of the college to require final examinations of all students in all courses in which they are registered for credit with the possible exception of seminar courses or special projects.

Academic Dishonesty:
Academic dishonesty is a serious offense at the College because it diminishes the quality of scholarship and the learning experience for everyone on campus. An act of academic dishonesty may lead to such penalties as reductions of grades, probation, suspension or expulsion. Examples of academic dishonesty include: cheating, fabrication, facilitating academic dishonesty, and plagiarism. Academic dishonesty offences can result in a permanent F grade in the course.

Student Rights and Responsibilities:
The student assumes certain obligations of performance and behavior while attending MSCD. Based on this premise, reasonable polices, procedures and regulations have been developed to guarantee each student’s opportunity to learn and to protect the fundamental rights of others. As members of an academic community, students are expected to conduct themselves in a mature and responsible manner. Students should try at all times to promote a sense of cooperation and civility within the College and work to build an atmosphere which will be most conducive to the goals of higher education within the institution. In cases of a student’s disruption of a class, the instructor has the authority to remove that student.

Prerequisites:
The School of Business reserves the right to dis-enroll students who do not meet prerequisite requirements of a course.

Additional information concerning the above policies may be found in the Current College Catalogue and/or the Student Handbook.

Approved by the SCOBS Curriculum Committee Draft 12/05/01
