Excessive absences will result in an unsatisfactory grade in the course. Class meets five hours a week. |

| GRADING | Evaluation will be announced. It will include evaluation of documents and speed tests. |
| CHEATING | Cheating will not be tolerated
in any way and will result in an “F” in the course. The following is considered cheating: • Talking during a test. • Getting help or copying answers from another student during a test. • Helping or giving another student answers during a test. • Turning in an assignment which has not been completed by you. • Using notes, books, or other references that are not authorized during a test. No distinction will be made between the student who did the work or test and the student who received or copied the work or test. The student(s) may also be referred to the Vice President of Student Services for further action which could result in probation, suspension, or expulsion from LAVC. |
