FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6TH 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/2013-2014/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
120 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, Public Oral Communication, 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
Public Health on a Pass/Fail basis in addition to the two other
permitted courses."
