Math 246 Attendance and Drop Policies
Spring 2003
Attendance
Attendance will be taken through 7 February (the last day to
add courses is 10 February). If you have three or more unexcused
absences during this period then you risk being administratively
dropped from the class, but most likely will not be.
You should never assume that you will be dropped from the class simply
because you are not attending lectures or not taking exams. If you
wish to drop the class, you should follow the University Procedures,
which are outlined under ``Drop'' below.
You are expected (but not required) to attend every scheduled class.
At all times, you are responsible for knowing every topic covered in
class (whether or not it is covered in the books), for obtaining all
materials distributed in class, and for knowing every change in either
a homework assignment, a Matlab project, an exam schedule, an office
hour, or a course policy that is announced in class. Graded
homeworks, projects, and exams will only be returned directly to each
student.

Drop
If you are enrolled in this course for credit then you must drop it
before the close of business on 10 February if you desire a
complete deletion of enrollment from your record. This can be done
either
- by accessing
Testudo ,
- by calling
MARS (301-403-0500),
- by using a
MARS Kiosk ,
- by coming to the Office of the Registrar
(1st floor Mitchell Building),
- or by coming to the Reckord Armory
at the beginning of the semester.
After 10 February you may drop this course with a grade of ``W''
until 14 April . After 14 April you may not drop this
course. The University Drop Policy can be found at
