Attendance In College

Attendance in College
“When a subject becomes totally obsolete we make it a required course.” – Peter Drucker
Can it then be said that when a student becomes obsolete, professors make required attendance policies? In my opinion, a good professor wouldn’t need a mandatory attendance policy because hopefully they will have structured their course(s) in such a way that lack of attendance will unquestionably harm performance on tests and papers. I can only imagine that professors enforce these policies because nobody would come to class otherwise. My paper is going to argue that although there is a correlation between class attendance and high grades, this correlation can only be applied to students that make an effort to understand the material during class. Requiring students to attend a class does not and cannot require them to listen, attempt to understand, or encourage learning. Physicality, ironically said, has no place in the classroom.
