Oakton Community College recognizes the broad diversity of religious
beliefs of its constituencies. The college has embraced the practice
of shared responsibility in the event a religious observance interferes
with class work or assignments. Students who inform instructors in advance
of an intended absence for a major religious observance will not be
penalized. The instructor will make reasonable accommodations for students,
which may include providing a make up test, altering assignment dates,
permitting a student to attend another section of the same course for
a class period or similar remedies. Instructors are not responsible
for teaching material again. Instructors should inform students of this
practice at the beginning of the semester so that arrangements can be
made accordingly. Similar consideration is accorded to faculty, staff
and administrators and is provided for in the respective contracts.

** Students must make arrangements with individual faculty members regarding
deadlines to submit required work for Incomplete (I) grades. |
