Cancellation Policy

There's always a chance of bad weather during Spring semester.
I will first say OSU hardly ever cancels classes due to weather.  I've been
at OSU in some capacity for over 35 years.  In that time, to the best of my
recollection, OSU  has cancelled classes probably about a dozen times.

I will NEVER cancel anything (class, lab, 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 at least 5 minutes before
the start of lab or I'm not in lecture when it's supposed to start please
contact me via e-mail or my office phone.  If you can't get a hold of me 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 for any reason.  They are not allowed to.
These decisions will be made by me, the lab supervisor, the chemistry
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 25 years of teaching I think I've missed fewer than 6 lectures and
someone covered those for me.  One time the lecture room was closed
due to a bomb threat.  I found another room to hold lecture and e-mailed
everyone so we wouldn't miss a lecture.   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).
