Attendance

While attending lectures and discussions is not mandatory, the faculty have observed a strong correlation between a student's success in CS/ECE 252 and their attendance record. Students that have difficulty waking up in time for morning lectures and/or staying alert during lectures are encouraged to invest in an alarm clock and a coffee pot.
