Class Attendance

Class attendance is expected and may be included in the calculation of the grade for the class. Students who register for courses they do not attend are responsible for dropping the courses officially through the registrar's office. The consequence of not officially dropping a course is a "WW" (withdrew without permission) grade, which calculates as an "F" in the GPA. Students should contact the professor if they plan to be absent any day during the first week of the semester/term. No person other than a faculty member attending informally with the approval of the professor may attend a Whitworth course in which that person has not been officially registered. A professor may allow a student to attend his or her class only if the student's name appears on the official class roster from the registrar's office.
