VII.  Unfinished business

--Policy on non-Oswego repeated courses—From APC, It was decided that “students shall only receive credit for the same course once. When a course is taken at Oswego that was previously taken elsewhere previously, the grade earned at Oswego is counted towards the student’s GPA.  If an Oswego course, in which a student earned a grade lower than C-, is repeated elsewhere with prior approval, and a C- or better was earned, the Oswego grade will be excluded from the student’s GPA.”

--Proposed Assessment Program, Director and Office (documents at http://www.oswego.edu/academics/faculty/assembly/minutes/H_11-12-07.html and http://www.oswego.edu/academics/faculty/assembly/minutes/Scan-ARRAPDO_10-29-07.pdf)
