ATTENDANCE & TIME CONFLICT POLICIES
The campus enrollment system allows students to have time conflicts in their schedule, to accommodate class shopping at the beginning of the semester and courses that have flexible attendance policies. However, this is only a temporary solution for the beginning of the semester; students must resolve any time conflicts to stay enrolled in your course. Institute policy is that students must attend DES INV class meetings, and instructors are in no way obligated to accommodate issues that arise from students’ decisions to enroll in classes with time conflicts. show less
