Absences seriously disrupt a student's orderly progress in a course, and often a close correlation exists between the number of absences and the final grade. Although an occasional absence might be unavoidable, the absence does not excuse a student from meeting the requirements of the missed class. The student is responsible for preparing all assignments for the next class and for completing work missed. Instructors are responsible for establishing course attendance requirements and for informing students of those requirements on course syllabi distributed at the beginning of the academic term.
