 Any first-term student or any student seeking reentry who does not register attendance within the first 7 days (online)/14 days (onsite) of the term will be withdrawn from his or her classes and his or her enrollment will be cancelled.  Students who have not participated in class by failing to log in for 21 consecutive calendar days (excluding scheduled breaks) will be administratively withdrawn from their program. Students who fail to log into any class within the first 21 days of the term will be dropped from the class or classes. Students enrolled in a 6-week term may not exceed 14 consecutive days of nonattendance.

 Wait to respond to a message that upsets you and be careful of what you say and how you say it.  Be considerate. Rude or threatening language, inflammatory assertions (often referred to as "flaming"), personal attacks, and other inappropriate communication will not be tolerated.  Never post a message that is in all capital letters -- it comes across to the reader as SHOUTING! Use boldface and italics sparingly, as they can denote sarcasm.  Keep messages short and to the point.  Always practice good grammar, punctuation, and composition. This shows that you’ve taken the time to craft your response and that you respect your classmates' work.  Keep in mind that threaded discussions are meant to be constructive exchanges.  Be respectful and treat everyone as you would want to be treated yourself.  Use spell check! 6/14/2016 7
