2011-12 SPRING SEMESTER FINAL EXAMINATION SCHEDULE

The committee on Academic Standing has issued the following final examination schedule for the second semester.  College policy stipulates that neither students nor faculty members may make changes in the published examination schedule without prior approval of the Registrar.  Conflicts caused by the schedule should be resolved by discussion with the appropriate instructor and completion of a Change in Examination form available in the Registrar's office.

                                   Saturday, May 12                                Reading Day

                                   Tuesday, May 29                                 Final Grades Due from instructors (noon)

Examinations for students in classes meeting at "arranged" hours will be during the final exam week at the examination time assigned to the time slot during which the arranged course met.  If a class meets in more than one time slot, the exam may be given in either time slot listed, at the discretion of the instructor.  Since many students have more than one exam a day, final exams should be limited to a maximum of three hours.

All take-home exams must be submitted to the appropriate instructors by the date stipulated by the instructors, or, at the latest, by 5:00 p.m. on the final day of the exam period (May 18).  All other written work, or oral defenses of written work, required in various courses will also be due by 5:00 p.m. on May 18, but instructors may also stipulate earlier due dates for this work if they so choose.

Students who have justifiable reasons for submitting course work later than the deadline stipulated are expected to work out arrangements for grades of Incomplete and extensions of time with their instructors, in accordance with the procedure for doing so as set forth in the Student Handbook.  No grade of Incomplete will be processed by the Registrar's Office if the Registrar has not granted prior approval.

Instructors will be expected to submit verification of C grades for all 2012 degree candidates by 12:00 noon on Saturday, May 19, 2012 (someone will be in the office between 9:00 am and noon).  Faculty who do not report/verify senior grades will cause the student to have their diploma withheld.

Instructors will be expected to submit final grades for all students to the Registrar by noon on Tuesday, May 29, 2012.  It is imperative that you plan your time accordingly because the Registrar's Office must have all grades processed and all problems solved in order to produce a low grade docket for the Committee on Academic Standing.
