2015-2016 Student Handbook 42 For the fall and spring semesters, course extension forms and proper medical documentation (if applicable) must be signed by the professor and then submitted to the Registrar before the last class meeting. For intersession or summer classes, course extension requests are due no later than noon on the last day of the session. *Extension requests cannot be granted for projects or thesis and are not available to graduating students unless the graduation date is postponed. Writing Center The Writing Center at Denver Seminary is open to all students and offers free tutorial assistance and discounted editing services. These services are designed to facilitate stronger academic writing practices. Additional information can be found on the Writing Center webpage. The Writing Center is located in conference room 113 in the library. To schedule an appointment, sign-up on the clipboard outside the door or email the Writing Center at writing.center@denverseminary.edu. Gender-Inclusive Language Denver Seminary students are required to use gender-inclusive language in their writing except when referring to God or when using a direct quote from another source. Students needing more information about the use of gender inclusive language may consult the Writing Center. Military Service Called to Active Duty Students who report for active duty, either involuntarily or voluntarily, should notify the Registrar's Office as soon as possible. Students who cannot complete their coursework will be withdrawn from the course(s) enrolled for that semester, and all tuition for the incomplete work will be refunded. In cases where it is appropriate and feasible for students to finish their course work, faculty will make a reasonable effort to work with students to this end. Students called to active duty will retain their student status for up to five years. Notification of intention to re-enroll in the next semester following deactivation must be given to the Seminary by students within 90 days following an honorable deactivation/discharge. Students will not need to reapply to the Seminary but will be required to re-sign the Statement of Faith. Students who have taken coursework at other institutions may be required to submit transcripts. Current Active Duty Students who are taking courses while on active duty and experience military obligations (field assignment, etc.) that interfere with their ability to meet course requirements (attending class or taking an exam on a specific date) should discuss the matter with their professor and also notify the Dean of Students. Active duty students should expect to provide Denver Seminary with professional documentation from their commanding officer to verify the dates/times they were away. With such documentation, students will be allowed to make up class work, quizzes or a test that was missed during the documented time period. Other assignments, such as research papers,
