RE: Off-Campus,
University-Sanctioned
Event
FROM: Amy Radunz,
Animal and Food Science
Department
The Animal and Food
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”):
Departing at 8:00 pm
on Thursday Sept. 25
and returning on
Sunday, Sept. 28th
Activity: Members of
the student
organization, UWRF Beef
Management Team, have
been invited to help
conduct the World Beef
Expo in Milwaukee, WI.
Academic Rationale for
Absence: This is a
great opportunity for
these students to
network with beef
industry professionals,
learn critical skills
such as organization,
time management, and
communication when they
help the board run this
event. This is also a
fundraiser for the
organization.

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.
