  6. Reminders Absences from class due to religious observances and extra-curricular activities Faculty and instructors are strongly encouraged to make reasonable accommodations in response to student requests to complete work missed by absence resulting from religious observances or participation in extra-curricular activities that enrich their experience, support their scholarly development, and benefit the university community. Examples include participation in scholarly presentations, performing arts, and intercollegiate sports, when the participation is at the request of, or coordinated by, a University official.  Such accommodations should be made in ways that do not dilute or preclude the requirements or learning outcomes for the course.  Students anticipating such a conflict should inform their instructor in writing within the first three weeks of the semester, and prior to the anticipated absence, and should take the initiative to work out with the instructor a schedule for making up missed work.  For conflicts with final examinations, students should contact the Office of the Dean of Students.

  7. Reminders Promotion Tenure and Reappointment • Old Form/New Form • Discuss goals with new hires • SET+ • Joint hires
