On Seminar Attendance
Written on 29.11.2025 11:40 by Till Koebe
Dear students,
I'd like to raise a few points on the topic of seminar attendance:
1) Be mindful of the presenting students, so please ensure you are on time. We already start 15 past, so there should be enough time to get here.
2) If you come more than 15 min late to class, it is counted as missing the class. Coming late affects your grade in class participation. Also, if you come late frequently, we consider counting it as an unexcused absence.
3) More than two unexcused absences will result in failing the seminar. Valid excuses are unforeseeable events that make attendance impossible, including sickness or unforeseeable family events. Please let us know as early as possible and provide proof, if possible. Job interviews, travels or other plannable/foreseeable events are not considered to be valid excuses. Also, please note that more than four absences (whether excused or not) will also result in failing the seminar.
All the best and looking forward to seeing you all again next week,
Till
