Absentee Policy: If a student feels ill, has an elevated temperature, or a positive symptom check relevant to
COVID-19, they should not attend in-person classes or activities, but remain at home (their room
if they live on campus). They will not be penalized for their absence(s), as long as they notify
their instructors of an illness prior to the beginning of the class session or activity. The student
should notify the office of Health Services about their positive temperature or COVID-19
symptom check.
If the Office of Health Services obtains a positive COVID-19 test from a student or determines
that as a result of a known contact a student should be quarantined, the Office will notify
instructors of a student’s absence from class for an undetermined duration. Students who miss
in-person classes or activities because they have been quarantined, in isolation, or because they
are ill, either as a consequence of COVID-19 or otherwise, will not be penalized for their
absences.
When a student is able, they are expected to keep up with class material that is available to them
online, complete and submit assignments and to participate in virtual course activities, when
such virtual activities are available. Otherwise, the instructor will work with the student to
arrange for appropriate extensions for required assignments.
All other absences will be subject to the policies defined by faculty members in the syllabi for
their courses.
