Expected Student Behavior
Attendance will be taken for each class period. The CIS Departmental Attendance policy is as follows:
1. Classes meet for 150 minutes per week in a regular semester. After 150 minutes of absences for any reason, one point will be deducted from the semester average for each additional 50minute absence. There are no excused absences. Two tardies equal one absence. If you leave class while class is being conducted, it will count as a tardy. If you are more than 10 minutes late, it will be counted as an absence. (Day and evening classes)
2. If you miss a lecture or lab period, it is your responsibility to determine what you have missed and take appropriate measures. DO NOT assume that the instructor will have materials handed out in your absence with him/her at the next class meeting. It is your responsibility to check with the instructor after class to correct an “absence” to a “late” if you enter the class after role has been taken and you were less than 10 minutes late. It is also your responsibility to drop the course if you cannot meet course expectations.
3. All exams musts be taken in the classroom under the supervision of the instructor. The instructor will set the time for the exam. Make-up exams will be taken in the presence of the instructor or in the testing lab. An exam may be taken only one time.
4. Students are expected to maintain a high standard of individual honor in their scholastic work. Students who are guilty of cheating, plagiarism, copying, or dishonesty may be excluded from class with a grade of F; or, in flagrant cases, may be suspended from the College. The faculty of the CIS Department reserves the right to ask a student to verify any portion of a test by reproducing any specific section or the entire test in question.
5. Any action that compromises the computer systems at Amarillo College, including but not limited to hacking or cracking can result in a grade of “F” in this course and possible further disciplinary action.
6. Cell phones MUST be turned off or set so ringing cannot be heard for the duration of the entire class. If a cell phone can be heard in class during class time, points may be deducted from the final course grade. Emergency calls may be left with campus security, who will then contact the designated student.
Computer Lab Printing Policy
Access to Business Division printing resources are a privilege granted to faculty, staff, and students of the Amarillo College Business Division. The Department reserves the right to limit, restrict, or extend these privileges.
The following regulations apply to all printers in the Business Division.
- Printing is restricted to students who are currently enrolled in Amarillo College Business Division classes.
- Students may only print course work related to Business Division classes.
- Printers should be used in a responsible, non-abusive manner.
- Excessive printing is not allowed. Printing of online books and manuals is restricted. PowerPoint presentations should be printed in “handout” layout with six slides per page.
- Students should not change any printer configuration; any malfunctioning equipment should be reported to a lab assistant or supervisor.
- For security, maintenance, and enforcement of this policy, students should expect NO PRIVACY concerning any printed materials.
Failure to comply with this policy will result in a preliminary warning. Subsequent infractions will result in loss of lab privileges and campus disciplinary action.
Grading Criteria
The final average consists of the following categories:
- Exams at 10% of the overall final average,
- The Comprehensive Final Project at 40% of the overall final average,
- Assignments at 45% of the overall final average, and
- Participation at 5% of the overall final average

Roll will be taken at the beginning of class.
Makeup exams will not be given unless arrangements have been made before the test.
