The request for advice was carried over from 1998-99. The CERJ advised against any change. The proposal is still pending. The only exception is when the instructor can secure unanimous agreement from the students to reschedule.
Rules govern classes of all sizes.
And the Registrar has no authority to publish alternative times or other exceptions. Revised memorandum was subsequently circulated. The practice of the Graduate Division and the Registrar of granting exceptions for students with grades of B- or above is without any authority. CERJ finds no authority for an instructor to drop a student for this cause. As the matter was pending before the University Committees on Rules and Jurisdiction and the Educational Policy, CERJ advised waiting for their decisions.
