FRIDAY, AUGUST 31st is the last day to sign up to take a
first eight week class pass/fail.
If you are interested in taking a
class pass/fail, please stop by my office (in the CMCL building at 800 E. 3rd
Street, room 259) so we can complete the required paperwork.
Here is
some information about the pass/fail option from the College of Arts and
Sciences Bulletin (http://www.indiana.edu/~bulletin/iub/college/2012-2013/policies/academic-policies/pass-fail.shtml):
"During their undergraduate program, students in good standing (not on
probation) may enroll in a maximum of eight elective courses to be taken with a
grade of P (Pass) or F (Fail). The Pass/Fail option is available for a maximum
of two courses per academic year, including summer sessions. For the Pass/Fail
option, the academic year is defined as beginning with the start of the fall
semester and ending with the end of the second summer session. The course
selected for Pass/Fail must be an elective (i.e., it cannot fulfill requirements
other than the minimum 122 hours required for the degree, but it can be used to
meet the requirement for courses at the 300–400 level). It may not be used to
satisfy any of the College of Arts and Sciences Foundations, Intensive Writing,
Foreign Language, Breadth of Inquiry, Culture Studies, or Critical Approaches to
the Arts and Sciences requirements. Nor may it be counted as a part of the
student’s concentration area, minor, or certificate program. During the freshman
year, students may elect to take activity courses in the School of Health,
Physical Education, and Recreation on a Pass/Fail basis in addition to the two
other permitted courses."
