CLASS ATTENDANCE:
Regular attendance is expected. Students
are responsible for all material covered in class.
LATE
ASSIGNMENTS:
Assignments are due on the date announced
at the time assignments are made. Late assignments will be penalized 20%
of the point value for the assignment for each calendar day by which the assignment
is overdue.
ACADEMIC HONESTY:
The search for truth and the dissemination
of knowledge are the central missions of a university. Benedictine University
pursues these missions in an environment guided by our Roman Catholic tradition
and our Benedictine heritage. Integrity and honesty are therefore expected of
all members of the University community, including students, faculty members,
administration, and staff. Actions such as cheating, plagiarism, collusion,
fabrication, forgery, falsification, destruction, multiple submission, solicitation,
and misrepresentation, are violations of these expectations and constitute unacceptable
behavior in the University community. The penalties for such actions can range
from a private verbal warning, all the way to expulsion from the University.
The University's Academic Honesty Policy is available at www.ben.edu/ahp
and students are expected to read it.
Academic honesty and integrity will
be upheld in this course. Plagiarism or academic dishonesty will not be tolerated.
My responsibility is to ensure that the academic work in this course is challenging,
relevant, useful, fair and unambiguous. Your responsibility is to perform this
work to the best of your ability. Collaboration is allowed and encouraged only
on homework assignments, as discussion among peers is a useful tool for understanding
the concepts. The bottom line is that I expect that all material submitted for
grading represents the efforts of the student(s) submitting the work. I will
follow up on any suspected incidents of academic dishonesty. If academic
dishonesty is found to exist, the first offense will result in zero credit for
the exam or assignment. The second offense will result in an F grade for the
course.
CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR:
The instructor’s goal is to create and maintain a classroom environment
that is conducive to learning. You must do your part to help accomplish this
goal by adhering to certain appropriate behaviors. These include: arriving
to class on time, being prepared for class, being present for the entire class
period, turning off cell phones, and using other electronic devices only when
appropriate.
OTHER INFORMATION:
If you have a documented learning,
psychological, or physical disability, you may be eligible for reasonable academic
accommodations or services. To request accommodations or services, please
contact Tina Sonderby in the Academic Resource Center, 249 Kindlon Hall, 630-829-6512. All
students are expected to fulfill essential course requirements. The University
will not waive any essential skill or requirement of a course or degree program.
ACADEMIC ACCOMODATIONS FOR RELIGIOUS
OBLIGATIONS (AAFRO):
A student whose religious obligation
conflicts with a course requirement may request an academic accommodation
from the instructor. Students must make such requests in writing by the end
of the first week of the class.
