The faculty voted electronically on the grade modifiers proposal last week. The vote concluded on Monday, April 26.
Faculty Senate President Cheryl Geisler refused to disclose results of the vote until today’s Faculty Senate meeting. The meeting is scheduled for today from 2 pm until 5 pm in the Russell Sage Dining Hall.
The proposal that the faculty voted on called for the modifiers to be phased in beginning in Fall 2005 with modifiers being used in 1000 and 6000 level classes. The following fall, professors of 2000 level classes will begin assigning modifiers, and in the fall of 2007, all classes will have modifiers worked into their grading scale.
