Note 3 - MIS-7550
To all students in MIS7550:
Recognizing the importance of job interviews and other distractions from academic work, but also noting that 40% of the course grade and much of the value of the course comes from "participation," we are concerned about the fact that some of you have missed more than two classes. The written makeup can cover the content of the readings, but cannot make up for the class learning. Thus, we are introducing the following policy:
If you miss more than two classes, you are required to attend a makeup class discussion, to be held in December at a time to be scheduled. The class will be a discussion of the ideas and frameworks in the course, and your contribution to the discussion will influence your participation grade proportional to the number of absences.
