| Students in both the College of Pharmacy and the College of Medicine at the initiation of each new semester are provided a semester study manual. This binder of information contains lecture and laboratory schedules, course syllabi as well as outlined lecture notes authored by the instructor of each course. Though not complete, these notes will serve as an outline for students and they should plan on adding to these notes daily while in class. Printed slide sets from power point lectures are kept on reserve within the University Library for student review. |

Record of all attendance and absence is maintained in the Office of the Registrar. |
