ACADEMIC COURSE HANDBOOK
AND SCHEDULE SUMMER 2009
On behalf of The Washington Center, the academic affairs staff welcomes you to
Washington and to one of the most important experiences you will have in your life.
The Washington Center Experience will impact you significantly, probably in ways in
which you cannot even imagine at this early point in your program. Over the past three
decades, The Washington Center has become a recognized leader in the field of
experiential learning by working with a diverse group of students who have diverse
goals for their internship in the nations capital. Trust us to provide you with a
framework for learning and contributing that will help you make the most of yourexperience in Washington, D.C.
While the internship may be your primary focus, the academic courses offered by The
Washington Center have been a longstanding tradition as an integral component of the
overall experience. We have found that interns need time to unwind after work in a
familiar classroom setting with their peers and a professor who is an expert in a
particular field of interest. Though the day at work may be long, the courses provide an
opportunity to gather ones thoughts about important topics and experiences that may
have occurred during the previous week or they allow you to speak your mind, debateor reflect upon some of the important issues of the day.
Your internship course will help put the experience you are having in Washington in
context. We want you to connect your professional activities with the academic rigor
you expect from your own campus, keeping in mind the unique access you have to the
resources of Washington, D.C. We encourage the faculty to break up the format of the
classes and allow for considerable interaction such that active learning can occur.
Some courses are highly structured, while others expect you to take more of the
initiative, based on your particular learning goals and objectives. The program therefore
recognizes that students have different learning styles and seeks to accommodate
students from diverse backgrounds by having instructors who have diverse
backgrounds and experiences themselves. They are a great resource for you during
your time in Washington. So enjoy your course, learn as much as you can, and reflect
upon the full experience you will be having in Washington, D.C.

S. Suzan J. Harkness, Ph.D.

by an instructor during a previous class or written on the course syllabus. In the case of
inclement weather, classes are canceled if the federal government is closed (in which case
The Washington Center is closed).
Students enrolled in the summer quarter and sophomore exploration program will attend
classes from June 8, 2009 to August 16, 2009. If you are a sophomore student you will be
participating in ST09-2203 Sophomore Experience: Leadership and Professional

ABOUT THE COURSES
Course Enrollment
Students have until Friday, June 12, 2009 at 5:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time to drop or
add a course using the appropriate form found on the Accepted Students website.
Requests for course changes must be confirmed in writing after orientation. Direct your
drop/add requests to [email protected]. Faculty members are not permitted to add
students to their courses. Only TWC academic staff can make changes to the course
roster.
Students may enroll in a second course in order to obtain additional credit from their
home institution. Students in the Postgraduate Professional Development Program
(PPDP) may enroll in a course only if space is available. Such students should identify
themselves to the instructor and are expected to fully participate in each and every
class period and turn in assigned work. Please download form number 12 on the
Accepted students webpage, the PPDP Course Enrollment Form, complete and submit
this to [email protected] after the 12th of June.
Course Materials and Fees
As stated in the course guide document on our Accepted Students website, you should
be prepared to cover the cost of any books, handouts, DVDs or any other reading
material required for the course. Cost of course materials is the sole responsibility of
the student. The cost usually ranges between $60-$80, and some courses may have
additional fees for admission to performances, special events, etc.
If this is the case, instructors should inform you on the first day of class. If you are not
in attendance on the first day, it is your responsibility to inquire. Some faculty have
prepared course packets that are required reading for the course. You may be required
to purchase such a packet. Since the cost of the packet depends on the number of
students in the class, you will be informed of the cost if you are still registered in the
course and you are responsible for paying for the packet. Checks or money orders are
the only acceptable form of payment and should be made out and sent to The
Washington Center. Faculty members are not authorized to accept money from
students for course materials.
If cost is a major concern, please contact the course coordinator, [email protected],
and inquire about the fees or book expenses for a particular course.
Course and Grading Policies
Each course meets once a week for up to three hours unless otherwise specified.
Faculty may choose to extend their class periods to make up for a canceled class or
8/14/2019 TWC Course Handbook Summer Quarter 2009
6/20
6 The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars
may reschedule the class for another night. In some cases, the classroom may be
reserved for another function during the term; therefore TWC will notify the instructor in
advance and appropriate arrangements to accommodate the class will be made.
Class Meeting Times
All courses begin at 6:30pm. Some classes may be able to meet earlier, 6:00 or 6:15, if
everyone in the course finds this change convenient and the management of the
location can accommodate an earlier start.
Attendance
Class attendance is mandatory and is taken at each session. TWC is notified if astudent misses two classes. If you are unable to attend class for a reason beyond your
control, you must contact your instructor either in advance or soon after the missed
class ends. We recognize that internship events in the evening may conflict with your
course schedule; and we advise you to consult you internship supervisor and professor
to determine if a conflict is possible. If conflict seems inevitable, you may choose to
change your course or make an arrangement with your instructor. However, faculty
members are not allowed to excuse a student because of such a scheduling conflict.
Thus, please be sure to consult with your agency supervisor to determine if you need to
change your course to avoid these conflicts, and keep in mind that you may only
change your course during the drop and add period.
Financial Aid
Students receiving a guaranteed financial assistance award must complete the course
to which they are assigned with a grade of "C" or better to receive the award. Note:
Students with a grade of less than a "C" in either the internship or the course forfeit any
guaranteed financial assistance and their invoice is adjusted accordingly.
Special Needs
Students with special needs should inform The Washington Center's disability
coordinator prior to arrival so we can make the necessary preparations. Email us at
[email protected] for more information.
Grades
Students who are graduating prior to the end of the term or quarter may need torequest an early grade. These students must complete the Early Grade Request form
and have it signed by their campus liaison and returned to the Washington Center by
the due date. A copy of this form is available online. It is the student's responsibility to
ensure that our enrollment services office receives the form on time. Also, be sure to
alert the instructor with sufficient notice so the timing of assignments and a final grade
can be planned accordingly. Early grade option depends fully upon the student. Please
8/14/2019 TWC Course Handbook Summer Quarter 2009
7/20
7 The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars
plan accordingly and coordinate with your course professor. Failure to do so may result
in lost financial aid, delayed enrollment, or delayed graduation.
TWC strongly discourages students to request a grade of "I" (incomplete). However, if astudent is unable to complete all assignments as a result of unforeseen circumstances
(i.e. unexpected internship travel, extended illness, etc.), then a written agreement
between the student and instructor must be submitted with the final grade sheet.
Incomplete agreements should include a final completion date that is no longer than six
weeks past the end of the term/semester.
Students with outstanding balances have their grades withheld until their balance is
paid. Reminder notices are not sent. Regardless of who is billed for the program or
housing fees, it is the responsibility of the student to ensure proper payment reaches
The Washington Center.
Wireless Access

Washington Center:

Course Numbers and Levels
Courses are created to appeal to students who have at least two years of general
education and the courses generally avoid prerequisites. Courses listed at the 3000
level are mostly introductory or of general interest. The 4000 level courses are more
in-depth, while 5000 level courses are for more advanced students with specific
interests.
Assessment
Faculty members prepare a written midterm and final evaluation of each student's
progress, which are sent to the student's campus liaison. Students are asked to provide
a midterm and final evaluation of the course and instructor. These written evaluations
are administrated by the course coordinator and distributed during class. Midterm
evaluations are summarized before they are sent to the instructor, so that students
feedback can remain anonymous. The final evaluation forms are copied and sent to the
faculty only after all grades have been submitted. Your reflective feedback on our
courses and faculty is very important to us.
Policies
Please note that as a matter of policy, smoking, the consumption of alcoholic
beverages, or eating are prohibited in classrooms and during class time. Students are
advised to eat dinner prior to class and are welcome to enjoy our outdoor patio or
student lounge. Students are responsible for their own computer access and library
8/14/2019 TWC Course Handbook Summer Quarter 2009

facilities. Please plan accordingly.
The Washington Center program is an academic program within a professional context,
and Washington is a professional city. We therefore strongly encourage you to dressprofessionally or appropriately at all programming events. For your courses, you should
avoid shorts, jeans, short skirts, tank tops, flip-flops, T-shirts or other overly casual
attire. This is not only out of deference to your classmates who may be coming directly
from their worksite, but also to others who see you at the classroom location, whether it
is The Washington Center's offices, a local university or a hotel. While you are in our
program, you represent not only yourself, but also the Washington Center and your
home institution. You are never really "off duty" during weekdays in Washington.
Academic Misconduct
The Washington Center seeks to further students' educational and career goals. Since
academic credit is usually available for our programs, we offer a quality experience for
students to develop their intellectual, professional, civic and social skills. We expect
students to take personal responsibility for their education, and therefore to submit
original reports, essays and evaluations, as required. Timeliness and reliability are also
required of their participation in all program components. Whether students are at their
placement, course, a speaker series, a lecture, a site visit, or involved in other
academic components, students are representatives of The Washington Center andtheir college or university, and are expected to act ethically and with the highest degree
of professionalism.
Students are expected to fulfill all academic requirements outlined by program
advisors,agency supervisors, associate faculty members, and program coordinators.
Students are expected to follow the work schedule of other employees at their
placement, not of their college or university or The Washington Center. Interns are
expected to notify The Washington Center if they will miss work for more than two
consecutive days due to illness or other causes and to receive appropriate permission.Students also need to notify TWC of any early departure at the end of an internship
semester or term. If a student will not be attending the last class of the semester or
term, they must receive proper permission from their program advisor, campus liaison,
and course instructor. Students should take the responsibility to keep their liaison
informed of any missed days of work. Incidents of misconduct may be reflected in a
student's final evaluation or grade and will be reported to the campus liaison or other
college officials. This may result in expulsion from The Washington Center's Internship
Program or Academic Seminar and will be maintained in a permanent file.
Academic misconduct includes but is not limited to the following acts:
Plagiarism: Plagiarism is a form of academic misconduct and is considered academic
theft. Plagiarism occurs when someone copies or takes the intellectual work of another as
ones own, and fails to properly reference or provide attribution to the original author of
the work.
8/14/2019 TWC Course Handbook Summer Quarter 2009
9/20
9 The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars
At The Washington Center, students are expected to submit original evaluations, essays,
papers, and demonstrations, and to cite all appropriate sources of material that influences
the work or contributes to its end. If requested, students should be prepared to provide
original notes, previous drafts, or other materials to indicate original research or intellectualownership of an assignment. If the thought, diagram, image, table, paper, photograph, or
text is not original, meaning it did not originate from your own thinking or artistry, you must
provide citation.
Cheating: The use of notes, books, or electronic devices when prohibited, the assistance
of another student while completing a quiz or an exam, or the providing of information to
another individual for this purpose, unless such collaboration is suggested by the course
instructor.
Falsification: The improper alteration of any record, document or evaluation.
Obstruction: Behaving in a disruptive manner or participating in activities that interfere
with the educational mission of The Washington Center at lectures, courses, meetings or
other sponsored events.
Absente eism: The chronic failure to attend program components (including the internship,
internship courses, or other scheduled activities) without a valid reason or prior notification.
Any other act of academic dishonesty.
The Washington Center reserves the right to impose additional penalties, including
expulsion from the program. A hearing regarding these charges may be held at the
request of the student.
Since The Washington Center does not grant academic credit, the grade received in a
course is only a recommended grade sent to the student's campus liaison. Thus,
additional avenues of appeal may be available to a student on the home campus,
depending upon how the campus liaison interprets The Washington Center's associate
faculty members grade. In all academic matters, the director of academic affairs is the
final arbiter regarding the responsibilities of The Washington Center in these matters.
Student Grievances
If students have a problem with the instructor, the course material, class format, or
other aspects of the course, they should speak with the instructor first. If speaking with
the instructor is not a possible course of action, or if students choose otherwise,
students should speak with the course coordinator who will arrange a conference in
consultation with the director of Academic Affairs. If students wish to make a formal
complaint, they must submit it in writing to the course coordinator, who will then advise
the director of Academic Affairs who will be responsible to take action.
