Attendance Policy

So important, I'll tell you about it in class, make you sign a sheet on your syllabus and put it here. 3 absences this semester. That's all you get. This should cover illnesses, family emergencies, car troubles and hooky days. Anything beyond 3 days will result in a full letter grade deduction from your final grade. For example: If you have a A running total in the class and are absent for the total amount of 12 class hours, your grade will be dropped to a B. 15 hours would be a C....and so forth. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to ask a fellow student for material and notes missed in class.  There is a lot of technical material including camera operation, file management and photoshop tutorials. I will not take away from class time to catch up students on lectures missed while were absent.
