HIST 174 Spring 2004 Course Syllabus Page 3 Too many final exams on the same day? University policy states that students who have more than 3 final exams scheduled on the same day may request to have the "extra" exams on a different day or days. In accordance with this policy, at the beginning of the semester all students in HIST 174 should check their final exam schedules (see the table in the Spring 2004 Schedule of Classes, page 12, or go to the Testudo website.) If you have more than 3 exams on one day and want to request to take the final exam in HIST 174 on a day earlier than the one scheduled, you must notify the instructor before the schedule adjustment deadline (Feb. 6), and you must submit a copy of your official course registration for this semester so the "too many exams" situation can be verified. All students who notify the instructor will then meet together and decide which day and time they want to take the final exam, and the instructor will arrange a room for this purpose. Note that only one alternate final exam can be given, and it must be before the scheduled date, since course grades must be submitted within 48 hours of the scheduled date. (See also Schedule of Classes, Spring 2004, page 12.) Religious Holidays Students who have a concern regarding religious observances should see the Instructor at the start of the semester. Although the University attempts to accommodate the religious beliefs of all of its members, it functions within a secular environment and is limited in the extent to which it can interrupt its normal operations. The President of the University shall determine when it is appropriate for the campus community to restrict scheduling examinations or other significant assessments on the dates of religious observance. For the Spring 2004 semester, the only restricted dates are Good Friday and the first two days of Passover. Absences from class or examinations, or delay in submitting written assignments, due to religious observance on any other days will not be excused unless the Instructor has been notified by the end of the Schedule Adjustment Period and the student has provided a written justification from the Dean of his/her college, or the Dean of Undergraduate Studies. (See also Schedule of Classes, Spring 2004, p. 36.) If the due date for a written assignment falls on a holiday observed by your religion but not recognized by the University, you must submit it on or before that day. Go to Next Page |
