TO: UWRF Colleagues
RE: Off-Campus, University-Sanctioned Event
FROM: Dr. Lissa Schneider-Rebozo, Director of Undergraduate Research, Scholarly and Creative Activity and Associate Professor of English
The Undergraduate Research, Scholarly and Creative Activity 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”): April 6 (at 8:00 a.m.) through April 9, 2016 (All day)
Activity: Undergraduate students (56) will present their research projects through, posters, visual displays, performing arts and oral presentations at the National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR), located at the University of North Carolina-Asheville in Asheville, North Carolina.
Academic Rationale for Absence: The National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) is important to the students’ professional development as well as an opportunity to present their research and connect with other scholars in and out of their field. NCUR is a great opportunity to showcase the talents of our students, and students from across the nation, by sharing their research projects. At the conference, students also have the opportunity to: attend student research presentations, visit the graduate school fair, listen and learn from the variety of plenary speakers, attend student interest sessions, and participate in the NCUR sponsored excursions to learn about the culture and area. Furthermore, these students are gaining valuable connections of networking with professionals. For more information about the conference, please visit: http://www.cur.org/ncur_2016/

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. http://www.uwrf.edu/FacultySenate/Handbook/Chapter8/
