[Teaching-Faculty] Final Week and Final Grades

[Office of the Provost/VPAA]

TO:   Teaching Faculty

FROM:  Dr. Anne Herzog

DATE: April 16, 2021

SUBJECT: Final Week and Final Grades



The Final Week of the semester is May 8-14, 2021. It is required that
classes meet or have other substantive activity during this week for
compliance with NYS educational mandates, Middle States accreditation
requirements, SUNY policy, and U.S. Department of Education definitions of
credit hours.



Faculty who administer a synchronous final exam should do so in accordance
with the Final Week exam schedule
<https://www.plattsburgh.edu/about/offices-divisions/registrar/final-exam-schedule.html>.
Keep in mind that students should be provided essential time to prepare for
final exams; thus, these exams and final projects should not be due to
faculty prior to exam week.


Faculty offering coursework in an asynchronous format must provide some
type of exam or other class activity during the Final Week in order to
comply with the definitions of credit hours.



The deadline for entering final grades via Banner is Noon on Wednesday, May
19. We are almost at the finish line for this very challenging year.  I
want to express my continued gratitude for all you are doing to help our
students successfully complete this semester.
