Registering your SAM code is mandatory to pass the class and must be completed. All other work in this course must be completed on the assigned day OR completed during the designated make-up day. You will only be allowed to make-up work if you submit an acceptable excuse to the CS 202 course coordinator, Dana Hooper, at [email protected] within one week of the missed assignment. In the absence of an accepted and timely excuse, makeup work will not be allowed. The keys here are timely communication and valid excuses. In-class assignments and exams: This course requires students to complete a number of in-class assignments and exams that are to be completed and submitted in the classroom during the class period. If a student misses any graded work he/she should plan to attend the appropriate make-up day as indicated on the course schedule. Only students who provide an acceptable excuse as described below will be permitted to take the make-up assignment. Otherwise, the grade will be recorded as a zero. A word about excuses: In order for an absence or missed work of any kind to be excused the student must provide written, verifiable documentation to the CS 202 course coordinator, Dana Hooper, within one week of the absence/due date. Excuses must contain the student's name, the date of the missed work and the signature and contact information of an official person who can verify the validity of the excuse. It is the responsibility of the student to provide this documentation in a timely manner as previously described. When a student provides a valid excuse, the course coordinator will send the student an email giving permission to make-up the work in question. The student is then required to bring a printed copy of the coordinator's email message on the make-up day.
