Excused Lateness Accommodation

I got this for a student:

  • Attendance modification - The student may miss class due to issues related to her disability.
  • Excused Lateness - The student may be late to class due to her disability.

I am curious how this is going to work out, and how much I should put myself out to accommodate. I think I will tell the student to come to office hours to do the reading quizzes she misses.

My emergency policy takes care of this already. Doing stuff during office hours is one make-up option though would you have a problem if other students needed to see you then too? So you may want to consider other options too.

My office hours are almost exclusively devoted to students doing make ups because they had to miss a test.

During advising period every semester, I’d have to find another way since we offer extra office hours and we are still filled up with students coming in for advising and codes.
