The success of our students is primary, and their ability to make informed decisions about their enrollment, and their right to receive quality advising require that midterm grades be available to them and to the faculty and staff assisting them.
Banner is the official system in which grades are kept and from which grades can be obtained by students and staff with a legitimate need to know.
Faculty are required by DOPS I:16:02:3 to do a mid-semester evaluation corresponding to their grading system for the course, and the Academic Calendar lists the due dates for midterm grades.
Thus, faculty in the School of Arts and Sciences are required to enter midterm grades into Banner by the date listed in the Academic Calendar for any course where a traditional midterm grade makes sense (For example, a midterm grade may not be required in a thesis course).
