76-220 INCOMPLETES (POLICY) An "incomplete" grade held beyond the deadline requires approval by the Registrar, who shall consider the continuing availability of the instructor; the responsibility of the student involved' and the cause for the incomplete. In such cases where the instructor is not available, the "incomplete contract" will be utilized by the appropriate department chairperson and the chairperson will assign a letter grade to the student, if possible. An incomplete grade is given only when the instructor feels that special circumstances warrant it. In addition to the faculty providing all information necessary to determine an appropriate grade for the student, the student with the instructor and department chairperson must sign a contract. Unless stated in the contract, any incomplete grade must be made up within one calendar year.
