5/3 FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT:The final exam scores and the letter grades have been entered in the database and reported to the University. The grades are final and cannot be changed. Only a small portion of the class received A's or A-'s. We hope you all have had a great semester in which we believe you have learned a lot of new things. If you wish to take a look at your final exam sheets along with the solution sheet, you can do so early next semester by scheduling an appt. The exam sheets will be recycled after mid- Fall semester.
Have a great summer!
