Requirements:

Since French 325 is largely a discussion class, regular and punctual attendance, thorough preparation, and active participation are expected. If the number of unexcused absences exceeds four, the student's final participation grade will be lowered ten points for each absence. Students who know they will be absent on a given day should be sure to give the instructor advance notice. Furthermore, students who have missed class are responsible for contacting a classmate to find out what was covered and what homework was assigned (phone/e-mail lists will be distributed early in the semester for this purpose). Since e-mail will be used for course announcements, all students are required to activate their university e-mail accounts if they have not already done so, and to check their mail regularly. Any written work for the course must be word-processed, double-spaced, spell-checked, and THOROUGHLY proofread. Programs with French accents and French spell- checkers are available at the Foreign Language Media Center, 211 Smith Hall. No credit will be given for work which has not been carefully proofread. In accordance with University and departmental policy, academic dishonesty including plagiarism will result in an F for the course. If you have any questions about documenting your sources, consult a guide such as the MLA Handbook, or see the instructor.
