ADDITIONAL REQUIRED MATERIALS:
a three-ring binder (with rings at least 1“ in diameter)
2 packages of dividers
notebook paper
a hole puncher and small stapler
Your success in this class depends on reading your textbook, completing assignments, and preparing for
quizzes before every class so required materials are a key component to your success.
Attendance Policy:
After two absences you may be dropped from class which means you will earn a “W” on your transcript
(your permanent academic record).
If your third absence occurs after the drop deadline has passed, your work will no longer be accepted
which means you will earn a grade on your permanent academic record.
Everyone begins the semester with 30 attendance points; 10 points are subtracted for each absence and 5
points are subtracted for each tardy. Leaving class early without prior notice will be considered a tardy.
Success Journal
Journal assignments are in your textbook, On Course: Strategies for Creating Success in College and in Life. Journals are worth 10 points each for a total of 330 points.
Journals will be typed and follow the five steps for creating successful journals in your text. To create a meaningful On-Course Journal, follow these five steps:
Type the directions for each step in your Journals, just the bold print, to distinguish them
from your answers Be spontaneous Be honest Be creative Dive deep
If you wish to keep a journal assignment private, fold the page over and staple it closed at the top and
bottom.
Grammar, spelling and punctuation will NOT be factors in earning points, so concentrate on expressing
yourself without worrying about these factors.
Write your earned points for each journal in On-Course in the table below
1 = 2 = 3 = 4 = 5 = 6 = 7 = 8 = 9 = 10 = 11 =

Case Study
The Late Paper:
Professor Freud announced in her syllabus for Psychology 101 that the final term paper had to be in her hands
by noon on December 18. No Student, she emphasized, would pass the course without a completed term paper
turned in on time. As the semester drew to a close, Kim had an A average in Professor Freud’s Psychology
class, and she began researching her term paper with excitement.
Arnold, Kim’s husband, felt threatened that he had only a high school diploma, while his wife was getting close
to her college degree. Arnold worked at a bakery, and his coworker, Phillip, began teasing that Kim would soon
dump Arnold for a college guy. That is when Arnold started accusing Kim of having an affair, and demanded
that she drop out of college. She told Arnold that he was being ridiculous. In fact, she said, a young man in
her history class had asked her out, but she refused. Instead of feeling better, Arnold became even angrier.
With Phillip continuing to provoke him, Arnold became sure Kim was having an affair, and he began telling her
everyday that she was stupid and would never get a degree.
Despite the tension at home, Kim finished her psychology term paper a day before it was due. Since Arnold
had hidden the car keys, she decided to take the bus to the college and turn in her psychology paper a day
early. Cindy, One of Kim’s Psychology class mates, drove up and invited Kim to join her and some other
students in an end-of-the-semester celebration. Kim told Cindy she was on her way to turn in her term paper,
and Cindy promised she would make sure Kim got it in on time. “I deserve some fun,” Kim decided, and hopped
into the car. The celebration went long into the night. Kim kept asking Cindy to take her home, but Cindy
always replied, “don’t be such a bore; have another drink. When Cindy finally took Kim home, it was 4:30 in the
morning. She sighed with relief when she found that Arnold had already fallen asleep.
When Kim woke up, it was 11:30 a.m., just 30 minutes before her term paper was due. She could make it to the
college on-time by car, so she shook Arnold and begged him to drive her. He just snapped, “Oh sure, you stay
out all night with your college friends. Then I am supposed to get up on my day off and drive you all over town.
Forget it.” “At least give me the keys”, she said, but Arnold merely rolled over and went back to sleep.
Panicked, Kim called Professor Freud’s office and told Mary, the secretary, that she was having car trouble.
“Don’t worry,” Mary assured Kim, “I’m sure Professor Freud won’t care if your term paper’s a little late. Just
be sure to have it here before she leaves at 1:00.” Relieved, Kim decided not to wake Arnold again; instead,
she took the bus.
At 12:15, Kim walked into Professor Freud’s Office with her term paper. Professor Freud said, “Sorry Kim,
You’re 15 minutes late.” She refused to accept Kim’s term paper, and gave her an F in the class.
Listed below are the characters in this story. Rank them in order of their responsibility for Kim’s failing
grade in Psychology 101. Give a different score to each character. Be prepared to explain your choices.
Most responsible - 123456 - Least responsible
___ Professor Freud, the teacher ___ Phillip, Arnold’s coworker
___ Kim, the psychology student ___ Cindy, Kim’s classmate
___ Arnold, Kim’s husband ___ Mary, Prof, Freud’s secretary
Diving deeper is there someone not mentioned in the story who may also bear responsibility for Kim’s failing
grade.
