RE:  Off-Campus, 
University-Sanctioned 
Event

FROM:  David Zlesak PES

The Plant and Earth 
Science 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”): Oct 
16th 8AM to noon

Activity: Bailey 
Nurseries, Cottage 
Grove MN, Tour of their 
business with emphasis 
on their plant 
propagation techniques

Academic Rationale for 
Absence: Commercial 
applications of 
principles we are 
learning in class will 
be demonstrated, the 
student will learn 
about this large 
business and how they 
innovate in the 
marketplace with their 
production and 
distribution methods, 
and students will be 
aware of this business 
where many of our grads 
find internships, jobs, 
or with jobs from other 
businesses purchase 
products from.

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.
