Can I take your class but not actually attend?

Yesterday I got a strange request from a student. She wants to enroll in one of my classes in the spring, but she only wants to attend class twice a month because she lives in Houston. The class meets twice a week (i.e., 8 times per month), so essentially she's asking for an excused absence 6 times a month for the entire semester. Are you kidding me?? She apparently asked two other professors for the same favor. So she wants to get her degree from a university in Denton, but doesn't want to actually attend classes here. Uhm... don't they have universities in Houston??
