Per OP 06.45 Faculty Absence from Duty, any member of the instructional staff who is unable, for reasons of illness, emergency, or death in the family, to meet any class or laboratory periods will notify the relevant department chair, who will in turn notify the dean. When the absence is due to professional reasons such as educational meetings or field trips or visits to schools, the instructor will make provisions for classes during their absence which are satisfactory with the department chair and dean. A Leave Request is to be submitted online well in advance of any trip that can be anticipated.
After signatures are obtained, please submit form to the Office of the Provost, Hardin Building, Room 114.
