Students’ Rights and Responsibilities

Syllabus

This syllabus defines the mutual expectations and requirements for this class. Just as I am expected to fulfill my part of this agreement (as to my office hours, grading procedures, and class scheduling), you are expected to fulfill your parts of this agreement (by being prepared for class, submitting work according to the guidelines listed herein, and the like). Each student is responsible for reviewing this syllabus and making sure that its terms are understood. If circumstances require changes to this agreement, the class will be notified both during one class session and via email.

Prerequisites

Course work in 101 assumes that you are building upon a foundation set in college-level English classes. It is expected that you are familiar with MLA citation and general grammatical terms and usage. To be a student in English 101, it is REQUIRED that you a) have taken and PASSED English 100 (if you’re a transfer, you will have taken the approved equivalent at another university or college), b) were placed in 101 without a pre-requisite due to your score on the composition placement exam, or c) were placed in 101 from 98 via portfolio. If none of these apply to you, you are in the wrong class.

Special Needs

As a student with a disability, before you may receive accommodations in this class, you will need to make an appointment with the Disability Resource Center, located in EN B 222. To speak with me about accommodations, or other concerns, such as medical emergencies or arrangements in case the building must be evacuated, please make an appointment as soon as possible.

Multilingual students are encouraged to check out Part 11 (“For Multilingual Writers”) of SMH. Additional resources are available, both online and offline.
