 Classroom Conduct

1. Arrive at class on time or a little early.

2. All assignments handed in must be your own work.

3. Cheating and plagiarizing are not allowed.

4. Behavior that distracts from instruction is not permitted.

5. If you are having difficulty in a class, make an appointment with the instructor for help.  Often, teachers will not intrude upon your independence by offering help until you ask for it.  Your progress in a course is primarily your responsibility.  Take charge!

6. Students may be absent from classes a total of 20 hours in a term.  Additional absences will result in level failure.

7. When absent, make up all work missed.  Ask either the teacher or a classmate for the work assignment.

8. Displays of temper, violence or bad manners are not acceptable.

9. Report needs and problems to your instructor.  For additional help, visit your Level Coordinator, an instructor who is responsible for your level, or the ELI Director.
