The administration officially adopted the pass/fail policy for this term. This win belongs to every one of you who signed and kept the pressure on. Keep monitoring your student emails to ensure the grading changes reflect properly on your transcripts.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Western New England community. These past few weeks we have suffered from a crisis. Not only has it affected the world, but it has affected us students in the heart of Springfield. We came to this school seeking a phenomenal education, but with the way these online courses are going it makes it very difficult to achieve the level of education we would have in our classes. For this reason, I am making a petition to change Western New England to pass/fail classes so we can all recieve the grades that we deserve!

The momentum behind this push for pass/fail grading is undeniable. Email your department head today and tell them clearly that the current system is failing us.

My wifi connection at home is garbage and zoom keeps crashing during the lectures. How am I supposed to get an A when I cant even hear the professor.
This semester has been a total mess. Teachers are assigning way more work than we had in person and its burning everyone out.
Some classes leave students at a disadvantage because now they are online. Ex: BUS 312 we had to download SAP software and when downloaded on to MACs vs the PCs at school it is much more complicated to work with.
As a graduating senior with sick parents, I have so much more to worry about than giving 100% effort in 5 online classes.
Not all professors understand how to properly use kodiak in order to give the student a proper chance at actually passing the class. Many professors also are giving much more work now that everything is online. It’s quite stressful and also difficult for those who don’t have a great form of technology to use for online classes. It’s an extremely new concept to many and very hard to adjust to while trying to use an unfit piece of technology for the remainder of the semester.
Absolutely
Stupid idea
