Grading      50% Exam 1

Make up tests are given only if the student receives permission from the Department Chairman as well as the instructor before the exam has been given.  Acceptable excuses do not include the student not being prepared for the exam.  If a situation arises where prior notification to the instructor is not possible, the instructor should be contacted as soon as possible after the exam has been given and the reason for missing the exam.  Excused students will be allowed to make up the exam (which may be altered from the original exam given) at a time that is mutually agreed upon.  Class attendance will be taken into consideration when determining the final grade for the course.  Grading will be on a curve based on class performance.
