I just retired with emeritus status. I don't know what it means other than
having a guaranteed front row seat at Board of Control meetings. Oh joy. On
another note, how many of you have a retired faculty member on your board of
control (trustees) rather than all business people?

Her goal is to get a grade she didn't earn. I used to give a student their

My final contribution to discussions of grades and tormenting yourselves

the university and the state during the last 26 years, that's seven, including

I was not referring to grade differences of less than a point. My grade
determining program also rounds up. I was referring to the "Give me a highere
grade because I want it", and "extra work for higher grades" requests.

What I find interesting is that so many "classic" experiments in many areas of
psych would be prohibited today. But, what do I know? Psychology is the only
discipline that I am aware of that has the conceit to consider itself no longer
in need of basic research, an attitude that I believe has lo
My advice to avoid these problems is to put on your syllabus that "no extra
work will be permitted at the end of the semester in order to raise your
grade." Then if you get emails refer them to the syllabus. My experience has
been that many students aim for the minimum scores to get the grade th
I hope that medical schools, and other education programs do not adopt that

humanists suggested- no entrance requirements, grades, tests. After all, in

My favorite comment was "Pisacreta sucks. I had to study every week in order to
get a decent grade"
Once a student asked me if I had to raise their grade if my dept. head or dean
ordered it.

All tenure means here is that you don't have to go through annual review by the dept.

I give a one essay question, five minute quiz on the chapter we are about to start.
They have the quiz questions in advance. They are the learning objectives for the

quizzes count for 20% of their letter grade

I am at one of those schools that annually publishes faculty and administrative
