During the first semester of the Surgical Technology Program a "75 EXAM AVERAGE" must be achieved before going to the first clinical location. If a student is not passing the courses of SRGT 1405 and SRGT 1409 with a "75 EXAM AVERAGE" then that student will not be allowed to go to clinical and will be dropped from the program.

Attendance Policy

1. Because poor attendance is a leading reason for termination from a job in all areas of employment, attendance at all scheduled classes is expected.

2. A student who is absent from course activities for more than three (3 ) days may be dropped from the program by the Program Director.

3. Students on campus but not in class are considered absent.

4. Late arrival to class is disruptive. Students who consistently arrive after the beginning of the class (2 or more times) will be counseled and a plan of corrective action determined. Class will begin promptly at the scheduled time. Students who arrive fifteen (15) minutes after the beginning of class should not enter the classroom and should wait until break to enter.

5. It is the students responsibility to notify the instructor of any absence. If the student is unable to contact the instructor(s), the student should call 409-984-6356 or 1-800-477-5872 ext. 6356. The student should also email the faculty or call the faculty office and leave a voicemail.

6. Students who arrive after an exam starts, but before it ends, may take the exam without penalty. They are given no additional time.

Academic Honesty

Academic honesty is expected from all students, and dishonesty in any form will not be tolerated. Please consult the LSC-PA policies (Section IX, subsection A, in the Faculty Handbook) for consequences of academic dishonesty.
