 Late Policy

The late work penalty applies every time you turn in homework. This penalty occurs on the day the assignment is due. The penalty for late work is a 20% deduction from the assignment. Work is considered late if your lab instructor does not receive the work in the first 15 minutes of the lab (e.g, 15 minutes late to end of lab). If the work is turned into your lab instructor after the lab is completed without verification, the assignment will be worth 0 points. Work that is turned in due to make up reasons will be collected at the Òmake upÓ time or the assignment will be worth 0 points. Your lab instructor will explain the late policy within the first week of lab.

If you miss a lab, you must contact Thomas Harpstead at 353 - 9635. Please leave a message and phone number, so he can contact you. Make ups must be completed immediately and it is best to reschedule ahead of time. It is your responsibility to read all this information and to know what you must do.
