FINAL GRADES FOR GRADUATING STUDENTS ARE DUE IN THE REGISTRAR'S OFFICE BY 9;00 A.M. THURSDAY,
MAY 8TH. Please do not forget to sign the rolls and hand deliver them if at all possible to the Registrar's Office.
That way we can resolve any problems that may exist.
You are reminded that the Registrar's Office uses optically scanned grade rolls. Because the forms must pass
through a machine to be read they cannot be folded, stapled or mutilated in any way. Errant marking of the form
will cause it to be rejected. We also request that you pay particular attention to the instructions on the form so
that we may minimize errors.
CORRECTION. The memo that was sent with each graduating student grade roll listed an incorrect return date.
The correct date is Thursday, May 8, by 9:00 a.m.
Thank you for your cooperation in this most important matter.
