Student Sizzle—AU Social Media Topics

AthaU Facebook Group

Casey asks how long it takes for course grades to be finalized after final assignment grades are posted; this sparks off a discussion about who does what with course grades. Jennifer tries to break the world’s record for refreshing her screen until her grades appear; still waiting for the folks at Guinness to rule on her attempt. Jeffi is stunned to open a textbook to find it was assembled backwards; other students advise contacting AU’s course materials department for a replacement.

Other posts include book hoarding, taking an in-class course elsewhere for credit at AU, citing stats can reports, and courses CHEM 217 and PSYC 356.
