DROPPING STUDENTS

This section of the syllabus is quite important. Failure to read and understand this text can result in a removal from the DVA.
Expectations of professors:
Professors should always attend class barring emergencies or unexpected events. Not feeling like it doesn't count. If a teacher is planning on missing class students should be notified in advance. A substitute teacher may be appointed to lead the class.
Professors should be kind and patient with all students. Teachers should not mock students during class. Teachers cannot be considered on duty all the time. Any posts that break the official Dream Views rules should be reported.*
Professors should grade all students and alert them via PM of their grade.
Professors should make themselves available for questions from students.
Professors should record and post chat logs from any IRC chats. This includes office hours, unless requested by the student(s). In that case they will be stored in a private thread for staff only.
Expectations of students:
Students should always try to attend class.
Students should do their assignments.
Students should not mock other students during class.
Students should not post the #DVA password anytime other then when joining the chat.
Guide to joining the IRC chat:
1) log in on http://dreamviews.com/community/index.php
2) click on the CHAT button
3) log in again with your same username and password
4) you will connect to the channel #DV
5) in the text bar type or copy and past (without asterisks *) */join #DVA fortress*
6) re read what you typed to make sure it is correct and then hit enter or return
The DVA password: If you are caught intentionally giving away the #DVA IRC password you may be banned from the DVA.
These are mostly expectations we have of students. Doing your homework is not mandatory neither is attending class.
