Our students get a pass/fail grade each semester for thesis/dissertation hours. Those grades are entered by the major professor or Graduate Coordinator who has knowledge of the student's progress. The Pass/Fail option each semester allows the major professor
to gauge the student's progress and implement corrective action if necessary. </div>

Dear LA-CGS members:<br>
<br>
At Louisiana Tech, graduate students in the thesis (master's degrees) or<br>
dissertation tracks get an "I" grade for those hours until the<br>
thesis/dissertation is submitted. At that point, the required number of<br>
thesis/dissertation hours are converted to "S" (current term and past<br>
terms). Is that how you all handle it? Usually the "instructor" for<br>
these courses is the associate dean in the colleges who often has no<br>
idea how well or poorly the student is progressing.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Ramu<br>
