Faculty Attendance and Grade Reports
Faculty Attendance
Faculty members are expected to hold all scheduled class meetings in person.
In the case of an emergency, a faculty member may cancel a class meeting without making alternative arrangements.
If a faculty member is unable to teach class in person due to a short-term planned absence, the individual is expected to make alternative arrangements for students to engage with the course, such as rescheduling the class, teaching remotely, communicating materials asynchronously, or arranging for a colleague to teach in their place.
In the event that a faculty member cannot teach a course for the equivalent of at least eleven weeks in person, the individual must inform the department chair and the provost and dean of the faculty so that appropriate alternative arrangements can be made (voted by the faculty, May 23, 2024).
Members of the faculty not on leave are required to attend the opening convocation, all faculty meetings, and the commencement exercises. Any member of the faculty unable to meet one of these obligations should inform the provost and dean of the faculty or the president of the reason.
Grade Reports
Members of the faculty are expected to report their grades to the registrar within the period of time at the end of each semester voted by the faculty (See Section H).
