Midterm grading
This is the final week for instructors to enter midterm grades for the fall semester. The Midterm Grade Worksheet will be available through Sunday October 25. As part of a recent upgrade to D2L, midterm grades can now be submitted through Elearning.
Additional information on midterm grading, as well as instructions on how to submit midterm grades via eLearning, can be found on the Registrar's Office website.
Re-authorization
Electronic re-authorizations closed at the end of the day on October 15. Supervisors have until the end of the day today to process approvals. While the majority of users complete the re-authorization online, there were over 300 that did not. For those users, the process has started to lock their account and an email will be sent containing instructions on how to manually process their security re-authorization. Re-authorizations not process by November 1 will be automatically deleted.
