The agenda was approved. The minutes were approved as submitted. Mailing of Student Grades Dr. Winfree recognized Mr. Jim Rose. Dr. Loutzenheiser posed questions about the current policy of mailing grades. Mr. Rose stated that grades are not mailed to students unless they request that their grades be mailed.
Students have two options on finding out their grades.
They can call Eagle Line to hear a verbal report of their grades and their status or use the web to generate a report which is the equivalent of a grade mailer. The screen on the web that shows their grades looks exactly like a grade sheet. Mr. Rose explained that students can find out their grades as they are reported, but the students cannot find out their academic status until all grades have been posted. Letters of probation and suspension are mailed to the permanent address which the student has supplied to the University. Mr. Rose explained to the committee that some schools have stopped mailing grades because the students are now able to view and print their grades from the web.
