PROPOSAL 6-69

EVENING EXAMINATIONS

A.

  1. Evening exams should be used only in courses with large enrollment, in which all students will take the same exam, and in which it is not educationally expedient to give the exam during a regularly scheduled class period.

  2. Students required to take an evening exam shall be excused from the regularly scheduled class period immediately preceding or following the exam.

  3. Evening exams may be given only on Wednesday or Thursday evenings. To avoid undue interference with students' preparation for other courses, any two-hour evening exam shall be given in one-hour segments on different evenings.

  4. An instructor wishing to give an evening exam shall clear the date, time, and room to insure that conflicts are not created. The details of this process will be developed by the cognizant administrative office.

  5. Special evening examinations should not be scheduled prior to 6:30 p.m.

B.

That provided the resolution is amended to include the student body, the Senate endorse Art. 4 Para. B (1) and B (2), page 319 of the Senate Minutes in principle. However, with reference to Para. B (2) once policies are developed in an interaction between the faculty, student body, and University administrators; it is the responsibility of all to function in accordance with the spirit of such policies.
