MACRAO Group,
We have had issues of faculty members giving "I" grades (incomplete grade) to students and then requesting that the student "sit in" on the same class the following semester in order to make up the work necessary for their "I" grade. These students are not registering for the course in any sense and I am therefore unable to track accurate capacities for the courses. Additionally, it is my understanding that if a student wants to "sit in" on a course then they should ACTUALLY register for the course and be repeating that course whether it is for credit or as an audit. This would require a grade that is allowed to be repeated and replaced. Since "I" grades are temporary they would not be considered repeatable.
Our current policy is not detailed enough to really prevent this type of situation from happening.
I have some concerns with this and wanted to reach out to all of you to gain some perspective on your current policies regarding "I" grades and if they are considered repeatable grades. I would also appreciate any insights into this type of situation that you may have.
Thanks so much and have a merry Christmas!
