Policies

Come to class.

This class is primarily a lab experience where each day's work prepares you for the next day's work.
If you miss a class, find out from another student what we did, and then complete that task before the next class.
Waiting to catch up during the next class places the entire class at a disadvantage.

Do your own work.

Cheating is grounds for assigning a failing grade and can be placed in your academic record.

Be Professional

Your enrollment in this class indicates that you plan to work professionally in a technical field. This same professionalism should conducted within the classroom.
A college classroom is not a multitasking environment. Engaging the computer or cell phone during lectures, demonstrations, and class discussions is distracting to others and just plain rude.
Cell phones and pagers need to be turned off.
Stay in class except during breaks as directed by the instructor.
Finish early to leave room for the technical problems that inevitably happen.

SFCC Statement on Diversity

In order for learning to take place, students must feel safe; this safety is due all students, not only those who share your values and beliefs. For this reason, courtesy, thoughtfulness, and acceptance are essential in our discussions in and out of the classroom. Acceptance should not be confused with agreement; one need not agree with a person to listen, and one must listen well in order to disagree respectfully. Every student in this course has a voice and so deserves the courtesy of attentive listening and the freedom to express diverse ideas.

Disability Support Services

If you have a health condition or disability that may require you to have accommodations in order to effectively participate in this class, please contact the Disability Support Services in Building 17, Room 201 (Phone 533-4166). Information about conditions or disabilities will be regarded as confidential.
