One comprehensive make-up exam will be administered at the
end of the semester. This will be available to students who have
missed an exam. No make-ups will be accepted for missed daily
grades - homework or quizzes. One daily grade will be dropped at

Accommodations for Students with Disabilities
Blinn College would like to help students with disabilities
achieve their highest potential in college. In order to receive
accommodations on exams or assignments, proper documentation must
first be provided to the Office of Disability Services. This
office is located on the bottom floor of the new Administration
Building in room 104 (phone # 830-4157). You must then
self-identify and conference with me during my posted office
hours to begin receiving accommodations in the class.

Attendance Policy
The College District believes that class attendance is
essential for student success; therefore, students are required
to promptly and regularly attend all their classes. Each class
meeting builds the foundation for subsequent class meetings.
Without full participation and regular class attendance, students
shall find themselves at a severe disadvantage for achieving
success in college. If a student has one week’s worth of unexcused
absences during the semester, he/she will be sent a message via
his/her Blinn email account by the College requiring the student
to contact his/her instructor and schedule a conference immediately
to discuss his/her attendance issues. Should the student accumulate
two weeks worth of unexcused absences, he/she will be administratively
withdrawn from class. Since this is a MWF class students will
receive the 1st notification via Blinn student email after 3 days
of unexcused absences and a 2nd notification via Blinn student
email after 4 days of absences. If a student is dropped from a
class prior to the “W” date, they will receive a “W” in the class.
When the student is administratively dropped after the “W” date,
students will receive a “WF” as stated in current policy. You
are able to access your student email account in BORIS.
