Administrative Drops is available at:

http://policy.arizona.edu/human-resources/religious-accommodation-policy
Absences pre-approved by the UA Dean of Students (or Dean
Designee) will be honored. See: https://deanofstudents.arizona.edu/absences
Participating in the course and attending lectures and
other course events are vital to the learning process. As
such, attendance is required at all lectures and
discussion section meetings. Students who miss class due
to illness or emergency are required to bring
documentation from their health-care provider or other
relevant, professional third parties. Failure to submit
third-party documentation will result in unexcused
absences. Note: It is students' responsibility to keep
informed of any announcements, syllabus adjustments or
policy changes made during scheduled classes.
Threatening
Behavior Policy
The UA Threatening Behavior by Students Policy prohibits
threats of physical harm to any member of the University
community, including to oneself.

Accessibility and
Accommodations
Our goal in this classroom is that learning experiences be
as accessible as possible. If you anticipate or experience
physical or academic barriers based on disability, please
let me know immediately so that we can discuss options.
You are also welcome to contact the Disability Resource
Center (520-621-3268) to establish reasonable
accommodations. For additional information on the
Disability Resource Center and reasonable accommodations,

Code of Academic Integrity
Students are encouraged to share intellectual views and
discuss freely the principles and applications of course
materials. However, graded work/exercises must be the
product of independent effort unless otherwise instructed.
Students are expected to adhere to the UA Code of Academic
Integrity as described in the UA General Catalog. See: http://deanofstudents.arizona.edu/academic-integrity/students/academic-integrity.
The University Libraries have some excellent tips for avoiding plagiarism, available at http://www.library.arizona.edu/help/tutorials/plagiarism/index.html.
Selling class notes
and/or other course materials to other students or to a
third party for resale is not permitted without the
instructor’s express written consent. Violations to this
and other course rules are subject to the Code of Academic
Integrity and may result in course sanctions.
Additionally, students who use D2L or UA e-mail to sell or
buy these copyrighted materials are subject to Code of
Conduct Violations for misuse of student e-mail addresses.
This conduct may also constitute copyright infringement.
UA
Nondiscrimination and Anti-harassment Policy
The University is committed to creating and maintaining an
environment free of discrimination;
see: http://policy.arizona.edu/human-resources/nondiscrimination-and-anti-harassment-policy
Our classroom is a place where everyone is encouraged to
express well-formed opinions and their reasons for those
opinions. We also want to create a tolerant and open
environment where such opinions can be expressed without
resorting to bullying or discrimination of others.
Subject to Change Statement
Information contained in the course syllabus, other than
the grade and absence policy, may be subject to change
with advance notice, as deemed appropriate by the
