POLICIES

1. General Conduct and Academic Integrity. EVSU students are expected to be academically honest. Students shall conduct themselves in a professional, business-
like manner and respect the faculty, classmates, and others present in class and will follow the rules of the academic unit, college and university. Students who fail to
conduct themselves in an appropriate manner shall be subjected to disciplinary actions in accordance with the regulations of the university.

In the actual work setting, if you are caught stealing, you will immediately lose your job. That same premise will be applied to the class. Cheating on minor or major exams
or plagiarism in submitted course requirements will result in a failing grade and will be reported to an authorized office for disciplinary action. Plagiarism and cheating refer
to the use of unauthorized books, notes or otherwise securing help in a test; copying tests, assignments, reports or term papers; representing the work of another person
as one’s own; collaborating without authority, with another student during an examination or in preparing academic work; signing another student’s name on an
attendance sheet; or otherwise practicing scholastic dishonesty.

2. Attendance. Class will begin and end at the scheduled time, it is disrespectful to the class being late or leaving early. Each student is required to attend the class and
attendance will be part of the final grade. Student who will miss a class is responsible for the course material covered in a session regardless of the reason for his/her
absence. The instructor may excuse absences only in cases of documented serious illness, religious observance, civic obligations, or participation in an activity approved
by the university president. Any other absences, such as absences for work related activities or a family emergency may be excused at the discretion of the instructor
upon receiving the required documentation. It is the student’s responsibility to contact the instructor after any unanticipated absence. Request for excused absences or
waiver of absences must be presented upon reporting back to class.

3. Examination Policy. Examinations are to be taken at the time and date set by the university. The instructor and students may set another time and date of examination
only if there are still topics to be discussed. Special examinations will only be allowed in special cases, such as prolonged illness.

4. Requirements Submission Policy. Any assignments and activity outputs must be submitted within the agreed deadline. Any final output or project must be submitted
before the end of the semester. Instructors or professors of the university are also given deadline in submitting grades. That is why the subject instructor is prohibited from
accepting late submissions to avoid delay in giving final grades and to meet the deadline of the submission of grades.
