Extension of the Withdrawal Deadline:

The deadline to withdraw from a course for Spring 2020 has been extended to April 9, 2020.

Student evaluation of courses for Spring 2020:

Student evaluations of spring 2020 courses will begin on April 15 and end on May 15, 2020. Faculty will receive a launch notice from Campus Labs this week. We have set the period for review of the spring courses to only reflect the period prior to the move to remote learning. This means evaluations will cover from the start of the term to spring break (March 6). A message clarifying this will be sent to faculty and students.
