What's new in the schedule for spring 2010.

Undergraduate plus/minus grading. Beginning with courses taken in fall 2009, plus/minus grading will be implemented for all students. Instructors will have the option of awarding a plus/minus grade to any student in any course where a letter grade is assigned. Law students taking law courses will continue to use the School of Law plus/minus scale. The plus/minus grades and grade points listed below will be used to calculate grade point averages for undergraduate and graduate students.

New fields of study: ESL, IRG, SSC, and WCV. Effective fall 2009 we added four new fields of study: ESL courses are offered by English as a Second Language Services in the International Office; IRG courses are offered by the International Relations and Global Studies Program in the College of Liberal Arts; SSC courses are offered by the Division of Statistics and Scientific Computation in the College of Natural Sciences; and WCV courses are offered by the Center for the Study of Core Texts and Ideas in the College of Liberal Arts.

Updates to class listings. When academic units update their class meeting information, the new information is available to students instantly on their class listing page as well as in this Course Schedule. Students are expected to double-check their classes prior to the first class meeting.

Electronic billing of tuition and fees. Since the spring 2006 semester, all tuition and fees have been electronically billed. Students no longer receive a paper bill in the mail. It is the students’ responsibility to make certain that their tuition and fees are paid by the deadlines listed in this Course Schedule. Only students who register prior to November 6 receive a notification that their fee bills are ready to be paid, however all students may view their bills at My Tuition Bill.

Official e-mail policy. Electronic mail, or e-mail, is a mechanism for official University communication to students. The University will exercise the right to send e-mail communication to all students, and the University will expect that e-mail communication will be received and read in a timely manner. The complete e-mail policy is available online.
