Guidelines on Religious Observances 



1.      Where classes or examinations are scheduled on the holy days of a
religion, students may notify their instructors, at least two weeks in
advance, of their intention to observe the holy day(s) by absenting
themselves from classes or examinations.

2.      Instructors will provide reasonable opportunities for such students
to make up work or missed examinations.

3.      Students will cooperate by accepting the provision of reasonable
opportunities for making up work or missed examinations.

4.      The University Secretary's Office will distribute a multi-faith
calendar to each academic unit annually.

Posting of Grades

The practice developed for posting grades after the introduction of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy legislation has been changed. All four B.C. universities have agreed to post grades by using the full student number, sorted numerically. Two important provisos are that the students' names are stripped and that students are given the option at the beginning of the course to not have their grades posted.
