6:00 exams: Eng Mgt 137 and Civ Eng 50
Some of the 5:00 exams lasted more than one hour.
Some courses allow no exceptions and no makeup exams. Some faculty penalize students who miss class because of an exam. Some courses make limited accommodations for students with conflicts.
Department Chairs Subcommittee August 2013
Summary of Recommendations:
1. Keep common exams.
2. One hour across the week should be reserved for common exams. Suggested times: 7:00 am, 12:00 pm (MWF), and 5:00 pm. Need at least three days a week.
3. If a class is scheduled during a common exam time, the instructor of the class that conflicts with the common exam should be prepared to accommodate the students taking the common exam.
4. Flagging the conflicts as prerequisites are flagged in order to send information to students and instructors is not feasible. This also would require that the instructors and students resolve the issue on a case-by-case basis.
