ATTENDANCE POLICY FOR FACE TO FACE COURSES
A primary component of OSUIT's Mission is “to prepare and sustain a diverse student body as
competitive members of a world-class workforce.” Regular and consistent attendance not only
aids in academic success, dependable attendance is a requirement in today's real-world
employment; therefore, regular and consistent attendance is a requirement in all OSUIT courses.
Definitions: Absent: Failing to attend all or a significant portion of a class or lab session.
A. Students may not be marked as absent if missing class for situations such as, but not
limited to
1. participating in a required university activity such as a field trip;
2. fulfilling a military obligation;
3. a mandatory court appearance;
4. death in the immediate family;
5. Extreme illness or accident to oneself or immediate family. Instructors, at
their discretion, may require proof of such events.
B. It is the responsibility of the student to contact and inform the instructor and/or
department in advance of such excused absences whenever possible.
Tardy: Arriving late to class as defined by the individual class instructor. Faculty, at their
discretion, may equate three tardies to equal one absence.
Procedures:
Early Intervention
A. Any student who misses 10% of an individual course (or earlier at faculty discretion)
during a regular fifteen-week semester, or the equivalent portion of time in a shorter
session, will have their name submitted by that course instructor to the OSUIT Early
Alert System for retention intervention.
B. At the point the Early Alert is issued, the student must meet with their assigned
faculty advisor or designated faculty/staff member within seven (7) academic
calendar days for counseling on how to improve their attendance and academic
success.
Excessive Absences
A. The University reserves the right to administratively withdraw any student from an
individual course who misses 20% of that course, whether excused or unexcused,
and, in the opinion of the instructor, the student does not have a reasonable
opportunity to be successful in the course.
B. Students should be aware any of the following may impact their financial aid:
1. being administratively withdrawn from a course
2. dropping a course
3. their last date of attendance in a course

Note: All of these topics will be covered and the hours on each are close approximates, however
this schedule may vary depending on unforeseeable circumstances that may arise and or
individual class rate of comprehension, this would occur by evaluation and discretion of the
instructor. Pop quizzes and assignments can be given at any time. Exams will be given at the
end of each subject but because of the before mentioned reasons it is impossible to give the exact
date. However, I will give you a minimum of two day notice before the actual exam is given.
INSTRUCTOR'S POLICY ON ABSENCES
A student must be present to receive their assignment, and all assignments are due within the
first five (5) minutes of class on the due date. Late homework is not accepted for grading unless
specific arrangements are made with and agreed upon by the instructor. When late work is
accepted 5% is taken off if turned in by 4:30 pm on the day it is due. For every day Homework
is late an additional 10% is taken off, i.e. should a homework be accepted late 3 days after it was
due then additional 30% would be deducted from the students’ score.
INSTRUCTOR'S LATE WORK POLICY
Arrangements can be made under certain circumstances with the instructor that will allow
students to turn in work late but only if students provide official paperwork (i.e. doctors note,
official school field trip excuse note, etc…) There will be no points deducted if the student has
an excused absence.
Pop Quizzes cannot be made up regardless of the circumstances of the absence.
Test can be made up but may be an alternative test and 10% will be deducted per day until it is
taken unless the absence was excused. Without an excused absence(s) the latest a test can be
taken late is three days.
STUDENT CONDUCT
Students are expected to cooperate in maintaining a classroom environment conducive to
learning. Courteous and respectful behavior will be expected from all students each day. All
pagers, cellular phones, and CD and MP3 players should be turned off. The use of tobacco in
any form in University buildings is prohibited.

CLASSROOM POLICIES
FOOD AND DRINKS
Food and drinks are not allowed in the classroom or lab.
STUDENT DRESS CODE
The primary purpose of the Construction Department is to prepare students for employment. In
this endeavor, one of the areas of training involves suitable attire for future technicians.
In reference to the dress code for Construction students the following rules and regulations will
apply:
NOTE: FACULTY WILL DETERMINE WHEN GUIDELINES ARE EXCEEDED.
1. Shorts, cuts-offs, sweat pants, sleeveless shirts or tank tops may not be worn in the
Construction Department. For safety purposes, shirt tails (except jacket type) will be worn
inside trousers.
2. Clothing, head gear or accessories with suggestive lettering, obscene pictures or unpatriotic
displays may not be worn, anytime, in the Construction Department.
3. Regular shoes or boots are to be worn with socks in the classroom and lab.
Sandals and shower shoes may not be worn in the classroom and lab.
SAFETY RULES AND REGULATIONS
1. Safety Glasses need to be worn when using motorized equipment or when soldering of brazing
2. Absolutely no horseplay in the lab or classroom
3. No running or jumping over things in lab or classroom.
4. Do not operate any equipment unless an instructor is present in lab.
5. Know the location of the fire extinguisher.
6. Keep tools and tool box out of the free walking area in the lab.
7. Do not stand on chairs or tool boxes when working on equipment.
8. under no circumstances work around a wet floor. Clean up any water immediately if not
sooner. Many of the high efficiency units in the lab produce a lot of condensation (water) and
they are not hooked directly to drains.
9. Notify the instructor of any hazard found in the lab or on the equipment.
10. Know the location of the main gas shut-off valve and how to operate it. In case of any
emergency shut off main gas shut-off valve.
11. Know location of all disconnect breakers for all electrical equipment.
12. Never stand in front of a gas furnace or appliance when operating or running test on it.
13. At the end of each lab period turn off the gas to the unit you are working on and disconnect
the electrical power source.
14. If it becomes necessary to lift any heavy objects, remember, lift with your legs, not your
back. Keep your back straight. Get help if the object is too heavy or bulky for you alone.
Students who fail to meet satisfactory standards relating to any of these rules will be sent home,
and or counseled by the Department Head; and if no improvement is made, enrollment may be
terminated.
