F. Course Requirements
G. Course Policies
ATTENDANCE: A student at WPU is expected to attend classes in order to progress satisfactorily toward completion of course objectives. In this intense, hands-on course,
attendance is mandatory for all classes. The reason for the absence does not matter. Even if you are ill or have a good reason for being absent, the information below applies.
In other words, your participation is very important! Failure to have the proper uniform and equipment will result in forfeiture of 50% of the lab grade
for the day. Every lab that you miss means 50 points are lost.
Arriving late will count against you. Leaving after the lecture means you will earn no credit for the day- if you are not in the kitchen you cannot participate. “Cutting out”
before the class is released from the kitchen by the instructor or kitchen manager will result in a loss of 50% of your earned grade for that day.
EXCESS ABSENCES: No matter how many classes you miss, you are always welcome to attend a class. Students accumulating more than more three (3) absences may
jeopardize their grade, fail or be withdrawn from the course. If you are not in class, you cannot earn evaluation points, so this will have a tendency to pull down your total
points earned for the course. Remember, a perfect daily grade is 50 points. Two absences are nearly the difference between an “A” and a “B” or “D” and “F”. You may also
miss opportunities to complete skill competency projects.
TARDINESS: Tardiness is inconsiderate and affects all students. Be professional an on time. Excessive tardiness may be reflected in your grade.
MAKE-UP WORK: In the event of missing a quiz you are free to make it up WITHIN ONE WEEK of the original dates. Please come to my office during office hours. The
daily lab grade, mid-term, and final exams may not be made up after the class has been held or the exam given. Any arrangements for special scheduling of an exam must be
made at least ten days prior to the scheduled exam date unless you have a medical excuse from a doctor.

HANDOUTS, NOTES: If you miss a class it is your responsibility to get the class notes from your fellow classmates. Hand-outs from previous classes are not usually brought
to the next class. You can pick up a handout during chef’s hours if available.
H. Consultation Hours
You are encouraged to inquire about your course grade to date at any time. No giving of extra credit work to individual students because it is inherently unfair to those
students who consistently work hard to achieve a high grade every day. Incomplete are not normally given unless you have a situation such as a serious, long term medical
problem that prevents you from attending class.
