Missed Final Exams

For each class the faculty member will determine and announce the implications of an unexcused absence from the final examination. Each faculty member shall make an announcement of class policy ahead of time and enforce it uniformly. Individual faculty members will decide whether an absence from a final examination is excused or unexcused. Normally, written documentation that the absence was unavoidable will be required. (Notes from doctors, lawyers, police, Vice President for Student Affairs and Enrollment Services, etc., will be acceptable; notes from parents, spouses, etc., will not.) If an absence is excused, a makeup exam must be given.
