You are required to go to the section for which you are
registered. On a very occasional basis (i.e. once or twice during semester),
you are allowed to attend another discussion section if you could not attend
your regular section. The three GSIs will be working closely together so
that the material covered in each section is as similar as possible (without
being overly restrictive).
Attendance is not directly computed into the grading policy.
However, failure to attend the discussion section (or lecture) on a regular
basis will likely have a negative impact on students' grades. Also, students
who do not attend discussion section (or class) should be warned that it
is not the responsibility of the GSI to do a makeup section during office
hours. It is the student's responsibility to copy notes. from a fellow
student or to attend another section.
Office Hours: Each GSI will hold two office hours
each week. While it is preferable to attend the office hours of your GSI,
please feel free to attend the office hours of the other GSIs if necessary.
