*Withdrawals must be initiated by the student. The instructor does not have the authority to withdraw the students name
from class roster. The last day to withdraw from the class with an automatic W grade is Nov. 8, 2013. The last day to
withdraw from the class is Nov. 22, 2013.
Note: The instructor reserves the right to lower the number of points required to earn one or more of the above letter
grade categories. The scale used will be applied uniformly to all students in class.

University Policy:
Cameron University prohibits lecture and/or laboratory attendance by any person not enrolled in the course.
Included are friends, spouses, parents, children, etc.
It is the policy of Cameron University to accommodate students with disabilities, pursuant to federal and state
law. Students with disabilities who need classroom accommodations must make their requests by contacting
the Office of Student De4velopment at (580) 581-2209, North Shepler room 314
Classroom and Laboratory Policies:
Attendance
*The student is expected to attend each class and laboratory period until dismissed by the instructor.
The instructor will not be responsible for getting missed information, due to absence or tardiness, to the
student. The student is expected to alert the instructor about any attendance difficulties.
*Not responding to the roll call constitutes an absence. Absences will count against the end-of-course grade
beginning with the fifth absence. The fifth and subsequent absences will cause ten (10) points for each
absence to be deducted from the total points that are used to determine the end-of-course grade.
Late Work
*Homework assignments are due at the beginning of the class period. Afterwards, the assignment is
considered late. The maximum score for late assignments will be 50% of the regular score. No points will be
awarded for assignments that are more than one week late.
*Lab reports will be due one week after the lab has been performed. Afterwards, the lab report is considered
late. 5 points will be deducted for each class day of lateness.
Laboratory
*Each laboratory exercise will be validated by having a copy of the results initialed by the instructor or other
approved individual. Also, the instructor may want to observe the completed exercise in action. Do not
dismantle the circuit until initialed.
*Return all equipment and components in the proper location.
