The field observation site and the date and time of the observation are confirmed in Week 9. Transportation is the student’s responsibility unless the instructor announces otherwise. A student who cannot attend completes an alternate assignment arranged with the instructor. The schedule may be adjusted by the instructor; changes are announced in class and in DroverNet.

Count and reconciliation sheets are completed and signed at the close of the laboratory session in which the exercise is conducted. A sheet that is not signed at the close of the session receives no credit and is not accepted later.

A reconciliation that does not balance is graded on the investigation and report of the variance, not on whether the variance was resolved.

Final grades are assigned on the grading scale published in the Catalog of record.

Attendance

Attendance is required at every laboratory. Laboratory exercises are conducted with issued materials that are counted in and out during the session and cannot be made up outside it; a student who misses a laboratory for a documented reason completes an alternate exercise arranged with the instructor.

ASTM F2413-rated footwear is required for the field observation. A student without compliant footwear does not take part in the observation and is marked absent.

The College observes Labor Day and the Thanksgiving recess (November 25–27). Shop, barn, and clinical assignments may require attendance during recess periods where continuity of care or process requires it.

Withdrawal

The last day to withdraw without penalty is September 11. The last day to withdraw with a W is October 30. Withdrawal is processed by the Office of the Registrar and is not effected by ceasing to attend. Term dates are published in the Academic Calendar.

Accommodation

The College provides reasonable accommodation under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Accommodation is requested from Disability Services, Room A-134, ext. 2144, and not from the instructor. Accommodation is not retroactive; it begins when approved. Students are encouraged to request accommodation before the term begins, particularly in courses with shop, barn, clinical, or field components.

The instructor receives a letter stating the approved accommodations and does not receive the diagnosis, the documentation, or the reason. An instructor who believes an approved accommodation cannot be implemented in this course contacts the Coordinator and does not decline it to the student. Safety requirements are not waived; where an accommodation interacts with a safety requirement, the Coordinator works with Environmental Health and Safety to identify a compliant alternative.

A student who believes an accommodation was wrongly denied or improperly implemented may file with the Section 504/ADA Coordinator, Bernadette Ollsvig, Room A-118, ext. 2240.

Academic integrity

Work submitted in this course is the student’s own. Records, readings, and measurements are entered as made and are not completed from another student’s work or from memory after the session. Academic integrity is governed by the academic policies of the Catalog. A matter is referred to the Office of the Dean of Students under the Student Code of Conduct (Policy 5.30) where the Catalog so provides.

Artificial intelligence

For the use of generative artificial intelligence tools in this course, see the division’s determination. Questions about whether a particular use is permitted are directed to the instructor before the work is submitted.
