The Daily Bulletin

The Late Semester Progress Report via Navigate will close on Friday, April 25. With this report, the Student Success and Retention unit is particularly looking at giving students your guidance as it relates to taking the class pass-fail or withdrawing from the class. 

Earlier this semester, we saw that faculty, trying to do their best to provide as much information as possible, were sometimes submitting multiple Alerts for individual students. We have come to better understand, after hearing from advisers and other support staff, that this approach creates multiple Alerts for students and that these multiples can be challenging to manage and to close. So, to minimize the volume of emails received by both students and staff regarding Alerts, we are asking instructors to do the following:

• For students, in instances when you as the instructor have multiple concerns, please raise the most pertinent Alert, such as Recommend Pass/Fail or Withdrawal.
• Then, rather than submit additional cases for the same student, we are asking you to include these concerns in the comment field that is available:
  • Options might include 3+ Attendance Absences, In Danger of Failing, and Missing/Late 2+ Assignments, or any other pertinent information.
• This clarity will streamline the process within Navigate and the adviser can still discuss all of your concerns at the same time.
