announcement: Approved: November 1, 2018
TO:  UWRF Colleagues
RE:  Off-Campus, University-Sanctioned Event
FROM:   CPT Jeremie Hannah
The UWRF – ARMY ROTC  Department is sponsoring an off-campus activity and a student in your course might miss class time.  The offices of the Provost and the Associate Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs require that students provide this notice to you no later than one week prior to their scheduled activity to be in compliance with appropriate policies.  Your consideration in allowing them to complete course assignments and work in compliance with these university’s policies* is appreciated.  Thank you for your support and cooperation.  Additional details are below.
Dates & Times (“activities should not be scheduled during the final exam period or one week prior to final examinations”): We will be leaving 1 November 2018, at 1330, Thursday morning, and returning Sunday 04 November 2018 in the evening.
Activity: Training at Fort Leonard Wood, MO. For Brigade Ranger Challenge
Academic Rationale for Absence: The students listed in this memorandum will lead a medical training lane at the Brigade Ranger Challenge, they will then tour Basic Officer Leadership Courses on post and receive information from newly commissioned officers currently attending the courses.  This is a fantastic opportunity for these Students to gain leadership experience, serve the Brigade and see firsthand what they will be doing during their next step in officer education following graduation.

8.2.11 University Sponsored Off-campus Activities and Field Trips: Students will not be penalized for missing class in order to participate in University sanctioned events. If class attendance is a requirement, missing a class in order to participate in a University-sanctioned event will not be counted as an absence. Such absences do not relieve the students of any of their class responsibilities (e.g., homework, exams, lecture notes, etc.). Students are responsible for completing course requirements that are due on the dates of University-sanctioned events per prior agreement with the instructor. A University-sanctioned event is defined to be any extracurricular event (e.g., educational field trips or conferences, theatrical performances, intercollegiate athletic contests, musical performance or tours, etc.) as approved by the Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs.
