Course Outcomes
 

Disability statement.   Emporia State University will make reasonable accommodations for persons with documented disabilities.  Students need to contact the Director of Disability Services and the professor as early in the semester as possible to ensure that classroom and academic accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion.  All communication between students, the Office of Disability Services, and the professor will be strictly confidential.
 
Faculty-Initiated Student Withdrawal Procedure.  
Students should be aware that your instructor follows the university’s policy of faculty-initiated student withdrawal.  It reads as follows:  “If a student’s absences from class or disruptive behavior become detrimental to the student’s progress or that of other students in the class, the faculty member shall attempt to contact the student in writing about withdrawing from the class and shall seek the aid of the office of Vice President of Student Affairs to help insure contacting the Student.  The Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs shall provide the student information about the existing appeals procedures.  Upon receiving a written report from the faculty member, the Vice President of Student Affairs may initiate a student withdrawal from the class.  None of the above implies or states that faculty members are required to initiate the student withdrawals for excessive absence.   [Policy and Procedures Manual 43.11]
