Class and
University Policies
Disabilities
If you qualify for accommodations
because of a disability, please submit to me a letter from Disability Services
in a timely manner so that your needs may be addressed. Disability
Services determines accommodations based on documented disabilities.
Contact: 303-492-8671, Willard 322, and www.Colorado.EDU/disabilityservices.
If
you have a temporary medical condition or injury, see guidelines at
http://www.colorado.edu/disabilityservices/go.cgi?select=temporary.html
Disability Services' letters for
students with disabilities indicate legally mandated reasonable
accommodations. The syllabus statements and answers to Frequently Asked
Questions can be found at www.colorado.edu/disabilityservices.
Religious
obligations
Campus policy regarding religious
observances requires that faculty make every effort to reasonably and fairly
deal with all students who, because of religious obligations, have conflicts
with scheduled exams, assignments or required attendance. Please review
the assignment calendar for this class and notify the instructor by email
within the first 2 weeks of class if you have such a conflict. See full details
at http://www.colorado.edu/policies/fac_relig.html
Classroom
behavior
Students and faculty each have
responsibility for maintaining an appropriate learning environment. Students
who fail to adhere to such behavioral standards may be subject to discipline.
Faculty have the professional responsibility to treat all students with
understanding, dignity and respect, to guide classroom discussion and to set
reasonable limits on the manner in which they and their students express
opinions. Professional courtesy and sensitivity are especially important
with respect to individuals and topics dealing with differences of race,
culture, religion, politics, sexual orientation, gender variance, and
nationalities. Class rosters are provided to the instructor with the
student's legal name. I will gladly honor your request to address you by an
alternate name or gender pronoun. Please advise me of this preference early in
the semester so that I may make appropriate changes to my records.
Students are required to be
familiar with the policies governing classroom behavior provided here:
