Cancellation Policy

[robert zellmer]

I know there's bad weather on the way.  I will first say that OSU hardly 
ever cancels
classes due to weather.  I've been at OSU in some capacity for at least 
30 years.  In
that time, to the best of my recollection, OSU has cancelled classes 
probably less than a
dozen times.

I will NEVER cancel anything (class, lab, recitations, exams, etc.) via 
e-mail.  The only
time anything will be cancelled is if you hear from me personally or 
classes have been
cancelled by OSU (which you will find on OSU's webpage).  If your TA is 
not in lab or
recitation 5 minutes before the start of lab or recitation or I'm not in 
lecture when it's
supposed to start please go to 110 Celeste or call the office at 
292-6009.  If it's an exam,
please have one person contact me (via e-mail and calling my office) or 
the main office.
Do NOT leave.

A TA will never cancel a lab or recitation for any reason.  They are not
allowed to.  These decisions will be made by me, Dr. Tatz, the department
or the university.  As a matter of policy, TAs are not allowed to make any
changes to the syllabus or class requirements.

I do everything I possibly can to make sure you get every class you've paid
for.  In 21 years of teaching I think I've missed fewer than 6 
lectures.  I'll
be there or upside down in a ditch (so please let someone know if I 
don't show
up for lecture so they can look for me).
