Final Examinations
The final examination week is an essential part of the academic semester. Although final examinations are not required in all classes, it is expected that classes will meet during the time scheduled for the final examination. Final examinations are to be conducted according to the guidelines of the College catalog and according to the final examinations schedule published at the beginning of each semester as part of the class schedule. The following guidelines are to be observed with respect to final examinations:
- Final examinations are to be given according to the published schedule.
- Take home final examinations are not due until the scheduled time for final examinations for that class.
- Final examinations for evening classes (6-10 p.m.) will be given at the regular class time during finals week or as scheduled.
- Laboratory and studio art final examinations may be given during the final week of classes.
There are many things required of students during the last few weeks of classes. Faculty are encouraged to work with students in planning for these last weeks and to be sensitive to the many requirements of the end of the semester.
Note: It is possible that individual students may have three finals scheduled during a given day. This creates a difficult situation for some of those students. If requested and reasonable, the faculty will work with the individual student in rescheduling a test at another time during finals week so as to remedy this situation.
