Course Policies:
Attendance, Absences, and Tardiness Regular class attendance is expected and required.
Class begins promptly at the designated time.
Work times in the lab are just as important as lecture, discussion and demonstrations.
Students are expected to have all assignments completed on time and participate in classroom
critiques and discussion.
The satisfactory explanation of an absence does not relieve the student from responsibility for
the course work assigned and/or due during his/her absences.
A student who does not attend class during the first week of school or starts late is still held
responsible for his/her absences.
If you will/did miss class, regardless of the reason, you must notify your instructor via email.
Students are responsible for gathering any information from the missed class period in a timely
manner.
Classroom Standards Students are expected to have the necessary materials and supplies for each meeting.
Projects must be worked on in class, but some work will also need to be completed outside of
class.
Projects not worked on in class will not be accepted.
Students are encouraged to watch progress on projects of other class members and to share
learning experience with others. Along with your own efforts, students are encouraged to learn
by observing the problems encountered by your classmates and their solutions.
Students are also encouraged to take an active role in your education, take initiative, and ask
questions for assistance.
No smoking or other tobacco products may be used. Food and drinks are not permitted.
Students are asked to clean their workspaces at the end of each class, including the disposal of
paper and material scraps, eraser slubs and broken pencil lead. Rooms should be reset at the
end of class for the next group of students. It is the responsibility of the last person leaving the
workroom to be sure the irons, lights, and all machines are turned off.

Disruptive behavior, such as the use of cell phones, reading the newspaper, inappropriate
language, or disregard to lab policies/equipment, will not be permitted. If at any time, a
student’s behavior is offensive to the instructor or your fellow students, he/she may be asked to
leave the classroom.
Cell phones and laptops are not permitted during class. All personal computers, entertainment
and personal communication devices must be turned off during lectures unless otherwise
specified. Students may, with permission, record lectures/demonstrations.
Late Assignments and Missed Exams Projects are due on the designated date and at the designated time. Late work will not be
accepted. If an assignment is due at the start-of-class and you are late to class, your assignment
is also late and will not be accepted. The only consideration will be given to situations with
written physician’s notes.
The due dates for all assignments are included in the syllabus, but may be subject to change.
Students will be informed of any changes in class or via e-mail.
Students are preparing to work in a professional environment where respecting due dates can
make a crucial difference in your career. Take this seriously.
Incomplete grades will only be given if 75% of the course has been completed and the student
has had a personal or family crisis.
Course Fee $90. A general fee assessed to all students in the class that covers lab equipment maintenance and
repairs, pattern paper, and tag board.
Research Sites Students are encouraged to conduct research and keep up-to-date with future fashion forecasts and trends through fashion industry publications and on-line reporting services including WWD and websites such as www.style.com, and www.firstview.com. Research fashion trends and designers for projects on the fashion forecasting site, Style Sight. Historical fashion trends may be researched on the Vogue Archive. There are also numerous individual designer sites. Note that consumer fashion magazines (such as Vogue, Elle, etc.) are not appropriate fashion forecasting sources, as they present garments that are already available on the market. Maintain notes regarding all sources and referenced works.
