Class attendance is mandatory. If a student is prevented from attending class in person due to quarantine or for a medical reason, I require written notification (and, if applicable, a doctor's note) at least 24 hours in advance. The entire class will then be switched to online delivery via Zoom. Attendance in an online class requires that you have your webcam on the entire class.
Students should attend every class, also those with visiting speakers. While I may grant permission to miss a class for personal reasons, you need to ask for permission in advance. A student missing more than three classes without prior approval will fail the course.
This course will be closed for registration after the 4th class session.
