LATE REPORTS & MAKE-UP POLICY C) Late Reports & Make-Up Policy C-1. Late Reports Laboratory reports are due at the beginning of the period after the one allocated for the completion of the experiment. The last report each quarter is due at the time indicated by the TA. Late reports will be met with a 5-point deduction for every calendar day the report is late. C-2. Laboratory Make-Up Policy Students must attend the laboratory class for the section in which they are enrolled. If a student misses a laboratory class with an excused absence, it must be made up before the end of the following week of laboratory. No further opportunity for make-up will be provided to the student who fails to make up the lab by the following week. No make ups for unexcused absences. If a student misses the last lab of the quarter, it must be made up immediately. Typically, laboratory classes end one or two days before the end of the quarter. No laboratory make-ups will be offered after one week from the scheduled date of the lab. Excused absences include an extended illness or family emergency. Bring proof to your TA or head TA immediately upon return. If you cannot present this proof or have an unexcused absence, you may receive a failing grade in the course. C-3. Laboratory Make-up Procedure You are required to complete all labs in order to pass the course and it is your responsibility to make up any missed labs promptly. Failure to make up a lab may result in a failing grade for the course. If you miss a lab, you must make it up by attending another scheduled laboratory section. Consult the Class Schedule and Room Directory for a listing of rooms and times. Go to the selected laboratory section and ask the teaching assistant if you may be admitted to make up a lab. You must be on time for the start of the lab period. If there is room in the class, the teaching assistant will allow you in the lab, unlock your locker, and allow you to do the lab. Make sure to record the teaching assistant's name, date, time and room number where you made up the laboratory. Have the TA collect your data sheet and he or she will give it to your regularly assigned teaching assistant. No laboratory report will be accepted without a valid copy of the data sheet. C-4. Plagiarism and Unauthorized Collaboration Some of your experiments will be done with lab partners. You are encouraged to discuss your data and its analysis and interpretation with your lab partner, other students and the TAs. However, the actual data analyses and the written reports must be done entirely independently of your lab partner or other students. Make sure that you avoid unauthorized collaboration and plagiarism. All suspected violations of the Code of Academic Conduct will be referred to Student Judicial Affairs. A-12
