Here's what we have in university-wide policy at CSU: Class Attendance Regulations<http://policylibrary.colostate.edu/policy.aspx?id=436> Instructors and departments are responsible for establishing attendance policies for classes and examinations. These policies must accommodate student participation in University-sanctioned extracurricular/co-curricular activities. Students must inform their instructors prior to the anticipated absence and take the initiative to make up missed work in a timely fashion. Instructors must make reasonable efforts to enable students to make up work which must be accomplished under the instructor's supervision (e.g., examinations, laboratories). In the event of a conflict in regard to this policy, individuals may appeal using established University procedures.
Not much help, I know. Good luck! /RS/ _________________________________________________________ Robert Schur, JD Exec.

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.
