How can I get a locker?
Commuter students may secure a locker for the academic year at no charge by choosing any locker that is available, except for lockers in the gymnasium. Lockers are available on a first come, first served basis. You will need to provide your own lock. At the end of the spring semester, all lockers must be cleaned out. If you are taking classes in the summer, you may keep the locker through the summer, but it must be cleaned out before the start of the fall semester. All items left in lockers at the end of the summer semester will be considered abandoned property and will be removed. If you experience a problem with lockers, please contact the Dean of Students Office.
Please note that Wentworth is not responsible for the loss or theft of personal property that is kept in lockers. If something is taken from your locker, you should contact Public Safety.
May I play the piano in Watson Auditorium?
Any member of the Wentworth community may use the piano in Watson Auditorium for practicing. Use depends on the availability of the auditorium. Students who wish to use the piano must leave their Wentworth student ID with the Dean of Students Office to borrow the key to the auditorium.
What should I do if I miss class?
Students are responsible for notifying their professors if they are going to be, or have been, absent. The decision to excuse an absence can only be made by the faculty member whose class is missed. Students who wish to appeal a faculty member’s decision should contact the appropriate academic Department Head.
Under extreme circumstances, such as hospitalization or a death in the family, the Dean of Students Office will notify a student’s professors of his/her absence. This note does not excuse the student from class or any missed assignments, and it is the student’s responsibility to contact his/her professors immediately upon returning to campus.
What if I have a problem with one of my professors?
Any conflicts or grievances with a professor should be brought to the attention of the professor whenever appropriate. Unresolved conflicts or grievances with a professor should be directed to that professor’s academic Department Head. This includes appeals of absences, grades, teaching methods, or in-class conduct.
