Students are expected to behave in a manner that is supportive of the learning environment. For a full discussion of appropriate behavior and student responsibilities, please refer to the Student Rights & Responsibilities Handbook. Students who fail to comply with the standards outlined in the syllabus and/or AC’s Student Rights & Responsibilities will be subject to disciplinary action which may include, but is not limited to: removal from the classroom, consultation with the Math & Engineering Department Chair, Physical Sciences Program Coordinator and/or other AC authority, withdrawal from the course and/or Amarillo College.
Cheating includes, but is not limited to, copying from another student’s paper, using unauthorized sources of information on any assignment, turning in work that is not your own (copied from the solution manual, having someone else do your work, etc.), and allowing someone to cheat. Any student who cheats will receive a grade of zero for that assignment (grade may NOT be dropped or replaced) and/or other disciplinary action as described in the Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook.
Failure to officially withdraw will result in a grade of F. Grades are based on the following scale:
100 - 90 = A
89.99-80.00 = B
79.99-70.00 = C
69.99 – 60.00 = D
59.99 and lower = F.
Final grades will not be curved.
Overall Grade: It is the students’ responsibility to keep track of their overall grade. There will be seven or eight labs that will account for your grade in this course. The lowest lab report grade will all be dropped.
Grade Disputes: While I encourage you to come to me with questions about answers on assignments anytime, if you wish to dispute a grade or have a grade changed, you must contact me about it within one week of the paper being returned or there will be no change to the grade.
Regular attendance is necessary for satisfactory achievement. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the student to attend class. If a student does not attend class or contact the instructor by the 12th class day of the semester, the student will automatically be dropped from the course and will not be allowed to re-enroll in this class.
If you miss class for any reason, it is YOUR responsibility to read in the textbook over the material you missed and fill out your notes accordingly.
Important Dates:
Monday, January 21 – Martin Luther King holiday (College Closed)
March 11-17 - Amarillo College Spring Break
April 17 – Last day to Withdraw
April 19-21 - Easter Holiday (College Closed)
The instructor sets the pace to meet these requirements. Any student having trouble maintaining the pace should seek extra help from the instructor and/or a tutor.
Cheating Policy: There is a no tolerance cheating policy in this course. If the instructor suspects or catches a student(s) cheating, an "F" will be issued to that student(s) for the course. The instructor also reserves the right to issue an "F" without confronting the student especially if it is finals week.
WITHDRAW: A grade of "W" will be given for drops or withdraws on or before the published official withdraw date.
FINAL GRADE CHANGES: The final grade turned into the registrar's office will not be changed unless approved by all full time chemistry faculty committee. Request must be submitted in writing.
