Attendance at all lecture and lab sessions is mandatory. It is your responsibility to notify the instructor prior to missing an exam or laboratory and you must have a valid reason. The instructor reserves the right to judge the validity of the excuse. If you miss an exam, you are responsible for taking the exam within one week of your return. There are no makeup labs unless you are able to come to another section during the same week and obtain instructor permission. Failure of the student to follow the steps outlined above will result in a grade of "0" for the missed exam or lab!
Grades are NOT curved. Grades are based on the total amount of points accumulated. Your grade can be calculated by dividing the sum of all your exam scores by the total number of possible points. Other grades (E, W, WP, WF) will be assigned as described in the College Catalog.
Grading Scale:
Every laboratory user should observe the following rules:

Mount Aloysius College is committed to the academic integrity of the entire community. All share responsibility for maintaining high standards of academic integrity, and no forms of academic dishonesty are tolerated. Forms of academic dishonesty include but are not restricted to giving or receiving unauthorized assistance on an examination, project, or assignment such as the use of crib notes, cell phones, and/or artificial intelligence (AI); falsification of data or plagiarism (using another person’s ideas or words as your own); lying or falsifying reasons for missing examinations or class; or any prohibited use of artificial intelligence (AI).
A student found guilty of lying, cheating, plagiarism, unapproved use of AI, or committing any form of academic dishonesty, depending on the nature of the offense and the history of the student, is usually subject to one or both of the following: a grade of zero on the assignment, project, or examination or a grade of F in the course. All cases of lying, cheating, plagiarism, or improper use of AI, where a punishment is incurred, are reported to the Vice President of Academic Affairs, who maintains a record of all offenses. Serial offenders may be subject to suspension or dismissal.
Students have the right to appeal as outlined in the appeal process.
Mount Aloysius College is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to students with disabilities. Students with disabilities who wish to request accommodations must contact Ms. Kimberly Washington, MA, Director of Student Success and Persistence, to formally request accommodations and provide supporting documentation. Her office is located in the Library, Room 116, (814) 886-6320. If you receive approval for accommodations, it is important that you stop by the office at the start of the semester so necessary arrangements can be made.
Should a student encounter difficulty with course content or other aspects of the course, the first action should be to make an appointment to speak with the instructor. The instructor may suggest resources on campus or other tips to assist student learning. If a student has concerns about their instructor, the best course of action is to seek out a meeting with the department chair to discuss the difficulties. If an agreeable decision is not reached, the student should request a meeting with the School Dean. Contact information for all of the department chairs and School Deans can be found on the Office, Programs, and Staff page of the Mountie Student Information & Help Hub under the Mount Resources button in Canvas. The Faculty, Department Chairs, and School Dean are committed to treating all students respectfully and fairly. Additional information is outlined in the academic grievance policy in the College catalog.
