WRITING: One week prior to the review, the student emails the most current draft of their REPORT to all committee members and the Graduate Advisor.
ATTENDEES: The committee and the student. The Graduate advisor may silently monitor any Review when not a committee member.
THE REVIEW: The Committee Chair manages the schedule, discussion and voting process of the Review. At the end of the Review, the Committee Chair creates a short synopsis of the discussion including suggestions and records them on the Committee Review Report Form. Those comments are shared with student and the form is returned to the Graduate Advisor.
EVALUATION PROCESS: The vote is Pass/Fail by majority. If the committee vote is split 50/50, the Graduate Advisor’s vote decides the outcome. The student must pass the Final Review to graduate. GRADING: The committee agrees on the student’s semester grade for Committee Study. The assigned course supervisor will enter the grade.
FAILING: If a student fails the Final Review, the Graduate Advisor appoints an ad-hoc subcommittee within 48 hours to determine, with the student’s committee, whether the student is terminated from the program.
