To Stay Enrolled in an Economics Class

Revised for Spring 2007

(Undergraduate Classes Only)

To stay enrolled in an Economics class, you must attend your class's lecture and section meetings during the first 5 days of classes (Tuesday, Jan 22nd through Monday, January 28th). Attendance will be taken.

If you do not attend the lecture and/or section in which you are officially enrolled during the first 5 days of classes, you will be dropped. If you are dropped, your space will be given to somebody else and you will have no priority to re-add; your name will go to the end of the waiting list for the class. Faculty and TAs will print out their roll sheets before each lecture and/or section meeting and take attendance from these lists. If you switch sections through Telebears during the first week, we won't know about it. To make sure you are not dropped from the course, you will need to contact both the original TA in whose section you were officially enrolled as well as the new TA.

If you have already missed the first meeting(s) of the class but do not want to be dropped, then you must do one of the following by Monday, January 28th:

  1. If your class has discussion sections, ask the TA(s) of all sections you were officially enrolled in during the first week to not drop you. Do this in person or leave a note in his/her TA mailbox, which you can find in the hallway near 508-1 Evans.
  2. If your class does NOT have discussion sections, contact the Economics Head GSI ( ) explaining that you missed lecture, but do not want to be dropped. Include your name, SID number, and the course number.
