V. COURSE POLICIES •
During class sessions, only lesson plan notebooks or similar notebooks are allowed. No books (including the Rules of Court) are allowed on the table. The notebook should contain only the student’s handwritten work. He can copy the Rules of Court by hand verbatim. An outline of the Rules and digests of cases, all by hand, though is much more preferred as the contents of the notebook.
•
Electronic gadgets and recording devices are strictly prohibited.
•
No pass policy during orals. All students called must recite to the best of their abilities.
•
•
•
•
•
Questions related to the re-scoring of bluebooks or exams should be raised to the attention of the professor within two days from notice that the bluebooks/exams have been returned to the office. Similarly, questions related to grades should first be addressed to the attention of the professor within the same time as the previous prior to seeking other avenues. Remember, since this is a special civil action class also, a motion for reconsideration is required prior to any petitions for certiorari since the said motion is a more speedy and adequate mode of appeal. An Excel file containing a running total of grades will be posted on Facebook so that the students will know their status anytime. The university policy on absences shall be strictly enforced. If a student has gone beyond the maximum number of absences, he shall take action accordingly (either withdraw or be marked with a final grade of 5.0). Excuse letters will only be accepted for valid reasons, and if duly notarized and in the form of an affidavit with supporting documents. There are times when the professor may come in late. Unless the School of Law gives advice, no student is expected to leave the classroom until the professor arrives. At any rate, the professor will advise the School of Law if he will hold classes on a particular date or not, or whether he will come in late or not. The class president shall also inquire from the professor whether he will come in or not, if the professor is already late for more than an hour with no advice being given. Other university policies on cheating, plagiarism, dress code, hair cuts, discipline, etc. shall be strictly enforced.
VI. CONTACT AND OTHER INFORMATION •
Preferred manner of communication is via Facebook’s Group Chat function. All communications must be coursed through the group chat facility to enable everyone to participate or know the topic being consulted about. Kindly add to the Group Chat the !(!!"
professor’s facebook account: Abe Acosta. Please note that proper English spelling and grammar shall always be maintained on Facebook. No small talks or nonsensical messages please, and no need to post “Thank you’s” or “noted”. Imagine receiving 60 messages from different students all saying “Thank you” or “noted” and/or similar messages. •
For inquiries requiring confidentiality, the professor may be approached anytime when he is in school or at his office address listed below. Kindly note considerations of office etiquette and time constraints when personally consulting with the professor at his office. Please schedule a consultation time prior to visiting the office.
