Students may now send a notice electronically to their professors of either an anticipated or unanticipated absence through MyCLE/Blackboard. With the Notification of Absences module, students can quickly notify all of their instructors of an absence. It remains the student's responsibility to follow-up with professors to discuss any work which may be missed. A professor may require documentation (e.g. a walk-out statement from Redfern); as always, the professor is the one who determines if a student's absence is excused or unexcused.

Finding and Using the Notification of Absences Module

When students log in to MyCLE/Blackboard at http://mycle.clemson.edu, they will see a "MyCLEmson" tab. This tab contains many modules (or windows) that the students can customize, add, and remove. The Notification of Absences module is located on this tab. It is also located on the "Students" tab, a non-customizable tab that contains all modules directed towards students.

Students can select an absence type from a drop-down menu, and then fill in the rest of the information. Absences listed in the drop-down menu include illness, family emergencies, university functions, and other expected and unexpected absences.
