This class is heavily participatory and I cannot assess you progress through the material if you are not here. I do not officially "take" attendance; rather, I give you a participation score each day. If you are chronically absent, your participation grade will suffer (missing more than 1-2 days begins to have an outsized impact on your grade). However, things sporadically come up. If you need to miss class, you do not need to email me or tell me why you are missing class--take care of yourself. You are always encouraged to meet with me in office hours if you are falling behind.
Tardiness
I also expect you to arrive to class early, with notebooks out and note cards turned in by the start of the class. We have much to do, so we start on time.

Late Work
Late work will be docked one point for every day beyond the due date. (ex: if an assignment is worth 10% of your grade, there are 10 points on offer. For every day late you will only have up to 9 pts, 8 pts etc. available).
Extensions
While I have a very strict late policy, I have a generous extension policy. So long as extensions are requested at least 24 hours in advance, I will grant you extra time. You do not need to tell me why you need it. However, late submission are likely to be returned late and this may impact your ability to complete future assignments.
