VERY IMPORTANT: All exams and assignments, including group and individual projects, will be completed in all sections of the course on the dates established in this calendar. Your teacher will provide you with a more detailed calendar including also classroom activities and homework.
VERY IMPORTANT: In case of illness or other valid reason, alternative arrangements can be made for exams and due dates of assignments. You need to contact your instructor as soon as possible to discuss possible alternative due dates. If you are sick, let your teacher know you will be missing class via email. You should NOT provide medical documentation as proof of short-term illness to justify an absence.
VERY IMPORTANT: If you are a student athlete, in the national guard, or are missing class because of a UW mandatory academic activity, you need to provide your instructor with proper documentation indicating the dates you will be missing class. Alternative arrangements for exams and assignments need to be made BEFORE the due date.
VERY IMPORTANT: If you are a DRS student or need religious accommodations, please visit the main page of the course syllabus for more detailed information on UW policies and resources.
