Hi, Meg, I'm sorry I can't help you with any info from Cornell-this kind of policy would be administered at the college level, and would not be considered a "university-wide" policy. Our colleges and schools are all over the map on this, but not one of them has a formalized or written policy in this area, as far as I can tell.

Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Resue, Margaret Sent: Tuesday, July 14, 2015 8:00 AM To: ACUPA-L Subject: [acupa-l] Policy Governing Faculty & Student Attendance Reporting Hello ACUPA Members, I would like to canvass the group to see if any of your institutions have internal or institutional policy/procedures for faculty to record attendance, a timeframe for early reporting of students on class rosters that have never attended, and a drop dead reporting window at the end of a semester for final attendance and grades to be submitted. Our college does have an internal procedure (faculty handbook) for faculty to follow, but the difficulty has been getting them to adhere to the requirements. This has caused no end of difficulties for our Financial Services department regarding mandated financial aid assistance reporting and audits, not to mention the issues it creates for Student Records. What methods (technological resources or otherwise) do your institutions use to gather attendance records & final grades by deadlines and how is it enforced? Is it an internal procedure or an institutional policy? There is talk here of developing a policy with the enforcement aspect connecting with Employee Code of Conduct & Work Rules. Any advice, comment, or samples will be most welcome. It's a problem hot potato now tossed in my direction. I didn't know where to begin, so I thought I would connect with the collective knowledge pool that is ACUPA.
