The following policies and procedures are college-wide. Be sure to speak with your department head or division chair to learn about policies and procedures unique to your department.
	=== Attendance ===		=== Attendance ===
			Attendance at classes at Xavier University is extremely important. Because poor student performance is most often equated with tardiness and absenteeism, the instructor is urged to use all reasonable methods to promote attendance at all regularly scheduled periods. Roll taking is required in all classes through the utilization of the University’s card reader system; in addition, excessive absences should be reported to the Registrar's office. Attendance itself in 2000, 3000 and 4000 level courses should not be a factor to be graded. It is conceivable; however, that participation in class activities may be linked to it.

	==== FE Policy ====		==== FE Policy ====
			Students enrolled in 1000-level courses may not be absent more than twice the number of times the class meets per week without receiving an FE grade (failure because of excessive absences) for the course. A waiver of FE may be requested by the instructor from the college dean in exceptional circumstances, for compelling and documented reasons. Instructors in certain disciplines may be influenced by professional or accrediting association directives regarding attendance, and compliance with such directives should be the norm.

	==== Card Readers/Attendance Reports ====		==== Card Readers/Attendance Reports ====
			Students should register their attendance for each class session using the electronic card readers.
			Teachers may rely on the weekly card reader reports to track attendance, OR may track attendance manually, (or do both, which is recommended).
			The card readers are the official record of attendance for administration and financial aid purposes.
			The card reader record may be adjusted manually by the teacher using this web address: https://xapps.xula.edu/attendance/.
			Do not “sweat” the card readers during class. You should know and students should know that adjustments to the card reader record can be made after class.
			Requesting that a student send you an email about the issue is a quick and easy way to move past attendance and onto course content.

			Faculty members are expected to take all reasonable precautions to assure integrity of academic work. Not only are they carefully to proctor tests and examinations, but also prudently to safeguard test questions before a test is administered and the test papers afterwards. Special care is to be exercised whenever students have access to the office of a faculty member or secretary.

			A faculty member has the authority to deny admission to the examination room to any student who arrives late, and under no circumstances is he/she to permit a student to take the examination if he/she arrives after another student has left the examination room. Students are expected to comply with the directions given by the instructor as to seating arrangements, use of tables or calculators, computers, etc.

	==== Cheating & Plagiarism ====		==== Cheating & Plagiarism ====
			Plagiarism – the explicit submission as one's own the words or ideas of another – is to be dealt with firmly. It is important that faculty instruct students, particularly freshmen, as to what constitutes plagiarism.
			Faculty members are to follow the Academic Integrity Policy of their respective College. The College of Arts and Sciences Academic Integrity Policy is found online, and the College of Pharmacy’s policy regarding academic integrity is found in the College’s Academic and Ethical Policies Handbook.
