Faculty Class Absences

Before Missing Class

If you are unable to be present to teach any of your classes (for any reason), you must contact the Office of Academic Affairs as soon as possible so that your classes can be covered (if possible) and the cancellation of your classes can be posted on the website and campus monitors.

How to Notify Academic Affairs of Your Absence

Email (from your kent.edu email) your absence notifications to the following individuals:

• tnortons@kent.edu - Thomas Norton-Smith
• dschnei1@kent.edu - Debbie Schneider
• rfranks7@kent.edu - Rae Ann Franks
• jspotts@kent.edu - Julie Spotts

If you are unable to email, call Academic Affairs at 330-244-3221 or 330-244-3209. Keep in mind that if you leave a voicemail message, your message may not be retrieved that day.
