    1. It is the student’s responsibility to gather information about the assignments and covered
    topics during the lectures missed. Regular class attendance is mandatory. Points will be taken
    off for missing classes. Without 70% of attendance, sitting for final exam is NOT allowed. According
    to IUB system students must enter the classroom within the first 20 minutes to get the
    attendance submitted.
    2. The date and syllabus of quiz, midterm and final exam is already given here, however,
    announcements will be given ahead of time. There is NO provision for make-up quizzes. 3. The reading
    materials for each class will be given prior to that class so that student may have a cursory look
    into the materials.
    4. Class participation is vital for better understanding of sociological issues. Students are invited
    to raise questions.
    5. Students should take tutorials with the instructor during the office hours. Prior appointment is
    required.
    6. Students must maintain the IUB code of conduct and ethical guidelines offered by the School

    8. Students are not allowed to keep bags, handouts, books, mobile phones, smart watches or any other
    smart electronic devices with them during any exam. Students are advised to keep everything in the
    front of the class room before the exam starts. Please note that, just carrying any smart electronic
    devises (even if the devise is turned off or put it in silent mode) during the exam will be considered
    as “cheating”. Moreover, during the exam, anything written on hand palms (or anywhere else) and
    carrying paper materials (whatever is written) will be considered as “cheating”. Any sorts of
