Evaluation of Students
The individual instructor of each course determines the method of evaluation. The final grade given for any course is based on the sum of evidence that the student gives the instructor that demonstrates understanding and retention of the material presented in the course. In addition to formal examinations, the instructor may determine the student’s grade using recitation, term papers, written and oral quizzes, and participation in class and seminar discussions. The grade is a symbol of a student’s degree of mastery of a course. The university requires that all written work submitted by students conform to standard English.
