or if a student enrolls in a class but never attends or stops attending class. A faculty member is
under no obligation to grant an instructor-initiated withdrawal.
Policy on I grade: The incomplete is given at the discretion of the instructor only when the
student has done satisfactory work but could not, for some unavoidable reason, complete
some part of the coursework or take the final examination. The student and instructor prepare
and sign an “Incomplete Grade Contract” (located in division offices) specifying the work to be
completed. The contract will include the date by which all work must be submitted and the
grade that will be submitted if the work is not completed. Incompletes given prior to Fall
Quarter of 1990 will be assigned letter grades.
