A record of your attendance will be maintained for every lecture and lab.
Attendance will be taken at the beginning and possibly at the end of class.
If you are not present at roll call, you will be marked absent. Attendance
and class participation is mandatory for your success in the dental
program. Should it become necessary for you to miss any lecture or lab
due to illness or unavoidable circumstance, you MUST notify that specific
instructor. The student is responsible for all material covered, any
assignments madeor due, during the absence. Please have a classmate
pick up your assignments or handouts.
Tardiness must be avoided since late entrance into the classroom and labis
disruptive to the teacher and to other learners. Three tardies will equal one
day absence from the lecture or lab.
Greenville Technical Collegeimplemented an attendance policy effective
Jan. 1989 that states.” A student may be administratively withdrawn if
he/she misses more than 10% of either a lecture or lab course.” For
example, if a lecture meets, 2 hours per week for the entire semester (30
hours), you may be administratively withdrawn from the course if your
absences exceed 3 hours.

consist of labeling, matching, multiple choice, fill in the blank, or
true/false questions. The final exam may use any of the above-mentioned
formats. All examinations are cumulative.
In case of inclement weather on a test day, the exam will be given on the
first day class resumes. Students will not be allowed to take any
examination early.
J Incompletes
A grade of “I”, Incomplete indicates that the student did not complete all
course requirements. The student is responsible for making up all
uncompleted work within the first two weeks of the next semester. All
penalties for late work will apply. If the work is not completed during the
allowed two week period, a grade of “F” will be assigned.

answers during class. They are also responsible for reading and reviewing
all assigned material as listed on the topic outline.
