                Policy Statement and Master Schedule for Exam Periods







      Examination Week



      1.  Exams are scheduled in the same place and at the same

          beginning time as the courses themselves.



      2.  Courses in the MWF mode have exams scheduled on M, W, or F.

          Courses in the T, Th mode have exams on T or Th.



      3.  Exams for courses at 6:00 p.m. or on Saturday are held in

          the usual class period.



      4.  Term I courses have their exams during the last class

          period.



      5.  A student may petition an instructor for an individual exam

          at a time and place to be arranged by the instructor.



      6.  The assigning of a comprehensive final examination is

          optional.  However, each member of the faculty is expected

          to use the assigned period for appropriate educational

          activities.



      7.  Faculty members may excuse graduating seniors from taking

          final exams during the last semester of their program.



      8.  Infrequent evaluation is considered detrimental to learning.

          Hence, the final exam should not be the only criterion for a

          student's final grade.
