WHAT SHOULD BE ON MY syllabus Addendum?

An addendum may be used by each instructor for that individual’s class section(s). Specific information to be included is at the discretion of individual faculty or department. A course addendum should accompany the course syllabus, not replace it; it may not contradict information contained in the approved syllabus posted on the college website or any policies outlined in the college catalog/handbook. This list may guide you in creating your own syllabus addendum.
