I will detail the policy for this course below. Basically, don't cheat and try to learn stuff. Don't be that guy.
20% of your grade will be determined by a midterm during normal class hours.
20% of your grade will be determined by a term paper that documents your appreciation of Foghat's "Slow Ride", the most important song ever written. "Slow Ride" is what Mozart wishes Don Giovanni could have been.
10% of your grade will be determined by your attendance and participation in class. Generally, ask questions and answer them.
20% of your grade will be determined by a 20-page term paper on when exactly "The Love Boat" jumped the proverbial shark. You will address whether this shark-jumping can be attributed to Ted McGinley, the introduction of Jill Whelan as "Vicki", or some other cause.
30% of your grade will be determined by a final exam.
Showing up is 80 percent of life -- Woody Allen, via Marshall Brickman
Students should be weary of skipping class. I deduct all participation points for a class after five unexcused absences and this can have important implications for a student's overall grade in the class. There is already a strong positive correlation between the percentage of classes a student has attended in the course and the student's final grade for the semester for all students I have taught since Fall 2014.
My current university, from what I have been told, asks professors to have policies written into their syllabus about what students should do if the professor is more than 15 minutes late to class. This seems like an anachronism. I will inform students via e-mail in advance of class if class is cancelled for the day. I will also contact our department secretary if something happened on the way to work. Failing that, assume the worst happened to me. I ask the students make sure that my story gets the proper treatment on an Investigation Discovery show. I also ask that my story be narrated by Keith Morrison.
I am usually quick to respond to student e-mails. However, student e-mails tend to do several things that try my patience. I have a new policy, effective Fall 2016, that outlines why I will not respond to certain e-mails students send. Multiple rationales follow.
There are NO make-ups for missed exams. Don't bother asking.
Don’t cheat. Don’t be that guy. Yes, you. You know exactly what I’m talking about too.
