CLASS POLICIES
Only students in the Official Class Master List provided by the Office of Registrar and Admissions will be admitted to the class. Special Admission may be allowed on
ADMISSION TO CLASS special permission from the Dean.
Prompt and regular attendance in all classes is required. For a 3-unit course, the maximum allowable number of absences is 11 as indicated in the College Student
Manual and as provided by the Manual of Regulations for Private Higher Education (MORPHE). However, only 3 unexcused absences are allowed. All other absences
may be excused provided that the student can present a valid Medical Certificate, or for by any case, excused by the Dean to meet special needs.
ATTENDANCE When the number of hours lost by absences of a student reaches 11, he shall be dropped from the subject.
Attendance includes wearing the proper prescribed uniform with appropriately displayed Southland College ID. In cases of deviation from the preceding rule, permission
from the OSAS is required to be admitted to class. The faculty may consider marking the student ‘absent’ on tardiness.

 Pursuant to the provisions in the College Student Manual (General Norms and Conduct; Disciplinary Sanctions) of Southland College, the student is expected to
CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR observe proper decorum at all times within the campus.
For a 3-unit course, 4 major examinations are recommended (Prelim and Pre-final will be equivalent to a chapter exam, Mid-term and Final Examinations will be
equivalent to 2 and 3 chapter exams, respectively.

Special examinations are given should a student be unable to take a scheduled exam due to considerable reasons provided a letter of request with the endorsement of
the Dean’s Office is presented. However, the faculty-in-charge can recommend to the Dean not to merit any excuse as a class policy.

Cheating, either caught-in-the-act or discovered to have committed such action after the examination, shall be subject to proper disciplinary action and penalty as
stipulated under the Southland College Student Manual. Cheating is identified as any of the following forms, any student who:
EXAMINATIONS 1. Deliberately looks at another student’s examination paper;
2. Talks or communicates with another student;
3. Copies from another student’s examination paper or report;
4. Sends another student to take the examination/course/class requirement;
5. Renders or being an accessory to such aid

On major examinations, students must present their Student Assessment and Examination Permit (SAEP) before the exam or any correspondence endorsed by the
Dean’s Office authorizing the student to take the examination.
CONSULTATION HOURS Friday 11-12 PM, LR 100 Mechanical Engineering Laboratory
The Faculty-in-charge can be contacted in the Google Classroom or the LMS where the student is enrolled. Other form of contact/communication will be provided by the
CONTACT DETAILS faculty at his discretion.
