■ if any questions or concerns
○ Concerns:
■ Students have 3 different grading scales from 3 different professors (inconsistency)
■ Seems to be that it is extremely difficult to get a 4.0
■ The transition was difficult for all current students
■ C- is not in good academic standing with the school
■ Greek Houses & Athletics are struggling
■ Education Department struggles too because if they get a C- in a class then they are required to retake it
■ Just a plus system???
■ Since it’s a +/- system then why isn’t there an A+ granted?
■ Was not communicated to all of student body very well
