Students are responsible for ensuring that required written course work is submitted and received on time. Written work should not be left in open mailboxes or other unattended places but rather given personally and directly to the course director or other faculty member or school administrator designated to act on his or her behalf. Written work that is mailed to instructors should be sent by certified mail, and a receipt of delivery should be requested from the Postal Service. The student should keep both the postal receipt and a copy of the written work. Written work that is sent through an e-mail system should be transmitted with a ‘receipt requested’ notification. Papers submitted through the MyCourses Assignment Upload function are automatically tracked and require no further record-keeping by the student.
