Are there any exceptions granted for mandatory activities during RRR week that count toward the final grade?
A limited number of exceptions are automatically granted for “special format” courses, such as performance- or studio-based courses, and for courses that require a capstone presentation that cannot be scheduled prior to RRR week due to time and venue constraints (see “recitation” FAQ above). Instructors are encouraged to schedule these activities outside of RRR week whenever possible. However, the campus recognizes that such courses may need to use the flexible scheduling opportunities presented by the RRR week for mandatory culminating performances, studio critiques, or capstone presentations that count toward students’ final grades, particularly those activities that may require special venues. Other exceptional course formats not listed above may be considered by the Committee on Educational Policy for exemption in the future. For Fall 2009, due to the late announcement of RRR week, several courses have had their previously scheduled activities that do not fall under the categories
