- Important Class Credit
Information! If
you have exceeded the absence limit in any class, you must schedule
an attendance meeting. This can be done by seeing Ms. Susie Zygmont in the
Dean’s Office (Room 168). Failure to schedule an attendance meeting will
result in a loss of credit for the classes in which you have more than 9
absences. Note that every three tardies equals one absence, so if you are
habitually tardy, this can quickly bring your absences over the limit. Do
not wait, schedule this meeting ASAP if this pertains to you since there
are limited appointment times this late in the semester.
