Grading Policy Revision: Enhancing Clarity and Process Efficiency

This policy revision aims to streamline grading procedures by eliminating NS references, clarifying grievance protocols, and reassessing the value of certain grades. Recommendations include removing WP and WF grades, refining criteria for I and W grades, and updating language in the incomplete grade policy. The responsibilities of the Grade Appeal Hearing Committee Chair are also outlined for improved oversight. These changes seek to align grading practices with academic standards and student progress.
