Attendance is strongly encouraged for the lecture class, whether it be seated and ready to start class in a classroom setting, or being at your laptop with camera on if virtual. Attendance for the laboratory portion of the course is mandatory (unless with an excused absence), whether it be seated and ready to start the laboratory, or being at your laptop with camera on if virtual. Problems in class will be reviewed and sometimes laptops will be used to reinforce concepts. Where possible, students should inform their instructors if they plan to be late or absent from class. Missing a test or a quiz will require an excused absence approval from the Dean’s office.
