RE:  Off-Campus, University-Sanctioned Event
FROM:  Tim Buttles, Agricultural Education Department
The Agricultural Education and Teacher Education Departments are 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”): Thursday, September 28 from 6:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Activity: Chisago Children’s Water Festival in Taylor’s Falls, MN.
Academic Rationale for Absence: This service learning event allows UWRF students to develop their teaching skills by presenting at the festival. This festival involves over 700 5th grade students from Chisago county and UWRF students enrolled in AGED 201, TED 440, the secondary science block, and the STEMteach program will be serving as presenters at 14 learning stations at the festival.

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.
