- Students selecting Credit/No Credit must earn at least 70% to receive Credit.
Total points will be weighted:

4. ATTENDANCE:
Attendance will be taken each class meeting. It has been my observation that a student
who attends class, generally speaking, will do better than one who does not. If you are absent, it is
your responsibility to get what you missed.
