If the student is not present for an exam, he/she will receive a failing grade. Makeup exams are given only on rare or emergency occasions with approval of the professor.

Written assignments will be given approximately every one to two weeks. The grade for late assignments will be lowered half a letter grade for every class period late unless otherwise designated by instructor.

Quizzes will be given periodically.

Group project and presentation of a musical analysis will be required during the semester.

Individual project will be required during the semester.

Attendance Policy:

Regular attendance is essential in a class of this nature as lectures, daily discussions, assignments, etc. build upon each other. Each absence makes it more difficult to keep up with assignments, etc. More than three absences is considered excessive. The student is responsible for consulting with the professor regarding any absences and the makeup work required.


IF THE STUDENT DOES NOT OFFICIALLY WITHDRAW AND IS CONSISTENTLY ABSENT FROM CLASS, THE STUDENT WILL RECEIVE A FAILING GRADE.
Attendance Policy:

Regular attendance is required because of the importance of daily discussions, especially concerning listening examples. The student is responsible for consulting with the professor regarding any absences and the makeup work required. If the student does not officially withdraw and is consistently absent from class, the student will receive a failing grade. (See Course withdrawal policy below.)


Classroom Conduct:

Please be respectful to professor and all students. Refrain from talking when professor or classmate is speaking. Do not work on material not related to this class during class hours.



Do not use cell phones or any other electronic devices during class time. NO TEXTING or INTERNET USE DURING CLASS unless approved by Professor.
Availability of Professor:

The professor will be available for tutoring sessions during office hours or by appointment. Students are encouraged to ask for assistance when needed and may leave a message on office or cell voice mail


Course Withdrawal : The deadline to withdraw from a course shall not exceed 3/4 the duration of any class. Check the TCC Academic Calendar for the deadline that applies to the course(s). Begin the process with a discussion with the faculty member assigned to the course.   Contact the Advisement Office at any TCC campus to initiate withdrawal from a course ('W' grade) or to change from Credit to Audit.   Withdrawal and/or change to an audit from a course after the drop/add period can alter the financial aid award for the current and future semesters.   Students may receive an outstanding bill from TCC if the recalculation leaves a balance due to TCC.   Students who stop participating in the course and fail to withdraw may receive a course grade of “F,” which may have financial aid consequences for the student.
Communications:

Email: All TCC students receive a designated TCC email address (ex:

jane.doe@tulsacc.edu). All communications to you about TCC and course

assignments will be sent to your TCC email address; and you must use TCC email to send email to, and receive email from, the instructor regarding this course.
Inclement Weather: If extreme weather conditions or emergency

situations arise, TCC gives cancellation notices to radio and television stations. This information is also posted on the TCC website (www.tulsacc.edu) and sent via TCC Emergency Alerts. Register to receive TCC Alerts from the MyTCC home page (https://tcc.bbcportal.com/ ).



Academic dishonesty: Academic dishonesty (cheating) is defined as the deception of others about one’s own work or about the work of another. Academic dishonesty or misconduct is not condoned or tolerated at campuses within the Tulsa Community College system. Tulsa Community College adopts a policy delegating certain forms of authority for disciplinary action to the faculty. Such disciplinary actions delegated to the faculty include, but are not limited to, the dismissal of disrespectful or disorderly students from classes. In the case of academic dishonesty a faculty member may:

  • Require the student to redo an assignment or test, or require the student to complete a substitute assignment or test;

  • Record a "zero" for the assignment or test in question;

  • Recommend to the student that the student withdraw from the class, or administratively withdraw the student from the class;

  • Record a grade of "F" for the student at the end of the semester.

Faculty may request that disciplinary action be taken against a student at the administrative level by submitting such a request to the Dean of Student Services.

Course Drop or Withdrawal: A student who has been found responsible for academic dishonesty in a course may not drop or withdraw from the course without faculty approval. If the student processes a drop or withdrawal from the course, the action will be reversed and the appropriate grade will be recorded on the student's transcript.

Disability Resources:  It is the policy and practice of Tulsa Community College to create inclusive learning environments. Accommodations for qualifying students in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act are available. To request accommodations, contact the Education Access Center (EAC) at eac@tulsacc.edu or call (918) 595-7115 (Voice). Deaf and hard of hearing students may text (918) 809-1864.
Tobacco Free College: Tulsa Community College is a Tobacco Free college in accordance with the Governor’s Executive Order 2012-01 and Title 63 of the Oklahoma Statutes, Section 1-1523 which prohibits smoking or the use of any tobacco products in all public places, in any indoor workplace, and all vehicles owned by the State of Oklahoma and all of its agencies and instrumentalities. This Order includes property leased, rented, or owned by TCC including, but not limited to, all grounds, buildings, facilities, and parking lots.
