Class Ranks and GPA Cut-Offs. Fall 2005 class ranks, and cumulative GPAs including Fall 2005 grades, are now available through Web for Students (click on the "Fall 2005" link under "Grades and Rank" on the left hand menu). The GPA cut-offs for upper-level students as of the end of the Fall 2005 semester are linked to this page. Please note: First-year students are not ranked until the end of their second semester. Likewise, transfer students and students admitted with advanced standing are not ranked until they have completed two semesters at Chicago-Kent.

Elective Courses Subject to the Mandatory Curve. A list of Spring 2005 elective courses with at least 25 students enrolled, and thus subject to the mandatory curve for elective courses, is linked to this page.

ASP Small Group Sessions. Information about the Academic Support Program, including membership criteria for ASP small group sessions and the process for petitioning into the small groups, is linked to this page. Petitions are due to me no later than Wednesday, February 8. For more information about the Academic Support Program and study resources, please visit the ASP web site.

Joke of the Week. Question: How many software programmers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Answer: None -- that's a hardware problem.
