Other Grading Information
These are the current estimations for the value of each part of the final grade. If the instructor feels that students’ educational needs require changes in the course requirements, grading categories, or grading scale, the instructor will announce these changes during class and well in advance of final grade calculations, thereby allowing time for students to adjust their work plans as necessary.
Any student who fails to complete a major paper for the course will automatically receive a grade of D. Any student who fails to turn in two major papers will automatically receive a grade of F for the course. Any student who fails to turn in three of the other course assignments will automatically receive a grade of F for the course.
Any course work which is either given or graded by any instructor other than the instructor of record (Dr. Gian Pagnucci) will not be used in the computation of a student’s final course grade.
