DeKALB – The Faculty Senate began conversations at Wednesday’s meeting to provide a pass/fail grading system for the spring semester.
While there are no set plans for the grading system, undergraduate and graduate students not in the College of Law were able to change any of their courses to a “Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory” grading system in the Spring 2020 semester but not last fall.
The change came as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic and after many universities made similar changes last spring.
Now, the university is considering making a similar change in the grading system after receiving mostly positive feedback from faculty members from last spring semester, Faculty Senate President Kendall Thu said.
