What is the absentee policy for didactic classes?

• A. One per semester
• B. No limit
• C. Two per semester
• D. Three per semester

Answer: (C)

Attendance policies for didactic classes set a clear expectation that you’ll be present for most instructional time, while still allowing a small number of unavoidable absences. The two-absence-per-semester limit provides a practical balance: it helps you stay engaged with the material and participate in learning activities, but it also recognizes that illnesses or emergencies can happen. If you go beyond that limit, the handbook typically outlines consequences or required makeup measures to maintain accountability and ensure you don’t fall behind. The other options don’t fit because one absence would be too strict for real-life situations, no limit would erode accountability and consistency, and three absences would exceed the established standard.
