    Do I need to attend class?

Additionally, their place in the class will be given to students on the waiting list. If an illness or emergency prevents a student from attending the first class session, the student must contact the instructor. A student who registers for a class and never attends is still responsible for dropping the class. Failure to properly drop a class by the appropriate deadline may result in a “W” and may hold the student responsible for all fees associated with the class. The burden of proof is on the student
