Question restatement: If I am late for class what will happen?

Options:
1) Attendance is not graded, but lateness may affect your learning and performance indirectly.
2) It depends. If the Prof has taken attendance, I will lose one point. If the Prof has not taken attendance, then I am lucky.
3) Nothing will happen, it is ok to roll in late.
4) Tardiness is ok at WKU.

Analysis of each option:
Option 1: 'Attendance is not graded, but lateness may affect your learning and performance indirectly.' This choice acknowledges that attendance may not be a direct grade item but lateness can still impact learning outcomes or course performance through reduced participation, missed information, or disruptions. This aligns with common academic policies that distinguish between attendance records and learning impact, making it plausible and reasonable.

Option 2: 'It depends. If the Prof has taken attendance, I will lose one point. If the Prof has not taken attendance, then I am lucky.' This introduces conditional behavior tied to the instructor’s attendance practice. While some instructors grade attendance or participation, many have fixed policies about lateness irrespective of whether attendance is formally taken on a given day. The statement oversimplifies or misstates typical policies, making it more uncertain and potentially inaccurate.

Option 3: 'Nothing will happen, it is ok to roll in late.' This reflects a flippant attitude toward lateness and ignores common classroom practices where late arrivals can disrupt a class, miss important content, or incur penalties. It is implausible as a general rule and unlikely to be endorsed by most instructors or syllabi.

Option 4: 'Tardiness is ok at WKU.' This universal claim asserts lax policy about lateness at a specific institution. In reality, most courses at universities (including WKU) have expectations about punctuality and some form of consequence or learning impact for lateness. Without explicit institutional policy guaranteeing tolerance, this option is doubtful as a general rule and could mislead students.

Synthesis note: When evaluating policies about lateness, consider common academic structures: some courses explicitly penalize late arrivals, others treat attendance separately from participation, and some emphasize learning impact rather than punitive points. The most balanced statement among the options reflects that lateness can affect learning indirectly even if attendance itself is not directly graded, which helps avoid overgeneralization and aligns with typical instructional considerations.
