What do I need to do to make-up a lab?
In order to request an excused absence, you must submit your documentation online at https://forms.as.uky.edu/general-chemistry-excused-absences. All make-up labs will be held the last week of classes.

I filled out an Excused Absence request form for lab, what happens now?
Once the lab supervisor has reviewed both your submitted documentation and the request form, she will send an email reply to both you and your TA. That email will contain:

My excused absence request form just shows a day, not a time for the make-up lab. What time should I come?
A full schedule of specific days and times will be posted as a Canvas announcement the Friday prior to make-up lab week. The best time to come make up a missed lab is during your normally scheduled lab period. Make-up labs are held the week following the last experiment.

What happens if I have an absence for lab that is unexcused?
Any absence from lab that is unexcused cannot be made-up and will count as a zero. However, your lowest experiment grade will be dropped at the end of the semester and this experiment could count as your dropped.

I am a student athlete/undergraduate researcher/choir member/etc and I will have University excused absences for more than two lab days.
You need to speak to the lab supervisor in JSB-261H IMMEDIATELY to review your schedule as there are limited make-up lab sessions.

What do you mean by the “lowest experiment grade” being dropped? What does that include?
The lowest experiment grade includes all assignments for a particular experiment. Each experiment is worth the same amount of points regardless of what assignments there are. Dropping the lowest lab will happen when I’m calculating course grades, which are done offline, so nothing will change in what you see in the Canvas grade book.
