General Policies and Procedures
To ensure the equitable treatment of all students enrolled in courses conducted by the Department of Management, the following policies have been adopted by all full-time and adjunct faculty members, and will be strictly enforced.
1. All papers that are submitted by students will be evaluated for grammar and spelling in addition to content. Students are strongly encouraged to use the Academic Center for Excellence or reference texts such as Elements of Style to ensure papers are of the highest quality. Grades for these papers will be compromised if grammar and spelling errors are not minimal.
2. It is expected that all students will thoroughly read and understand the course syllabus. This document reflects a mutual understanding between the student and the professor, and should be kept for reference, especially concerning course policies and procedures.
3. Email Communications must be kept professional, and should always include the following information: name, date, reason for the email, and “signature” at the end of the email correspondence. If an immediate reply is required, email may not be the most effective means of communication. Many faculty members do not check email messages more than once or twice a day.
4. Grades are earned during the course of the semester, and are non-negotiable at the end of the semester. It is the responsibility of the student to work collaboratively with the professor early in the semester if grades received to date are lower than desired.
5. Disciplinary action will be undertaken with any act of plagiarism and/or cheating. Students will be required to meet with the professor to discuss any such misconduct before meeting with the Department Chair.
