SWSEEL, like all other intensive summer language programs, has a very strict attendance policy. The accelerated rate of SWSEEL courses means that each day's class meeting is about the equivalent of one week's instruction in a regular academic year course and the credits assigned are based on students meeting a specified number of contact hours.

Excessive or prolonged absences impact individual student performance. They also create potential problems for instructors, who expect to follow their curriculum at a specific pace and for fellow students who attend class regularly and whose progress may be slowed by students who, because of such absences, are unable to keep up with the pace of the class.

All course syllabi outline specific grade-related penalties for absences and the attendance policy will be reviewed during student orientations.

Students should not plan to be absent in the middle of the program. Any planned absences must be brought to the attention of the director before May 1, 2013.

Any questions about the policy should be addressed to the SWSEEL director swseel@indiana.edu.

No, neither is an option.

We are now located in the Polish Studies Center house at 1217 E Atwater Ave, between Ballantine Road and South Highland Ave.

Any questions about the policies above should be addressed to the SWSEEL director at swseel@indiana.edu.
