If a course is dropped under extenuating circumstances
in week 4 or 5 then the notation will be WE rather than
WD. These drops require the approval of the instructor
and the Chairman."
Note: The notations "WD" and "WE" do not affect the grade point average.
A definition of "extenuating circumstances" has been proposed and
additional work is being undertaken to provide a number of examples
to clarify further the intent.

"That consideration be deferred until there is a
definition of extenuating circumstances."

S.M. 11/1/82
T. Arrott enquired if withdrawals from courses (WD or WE notations)
would be counted as duplicate courses, and R. Brown offered a point of
information that WD's and WE's apply only to courses that have not been
completed, and are not included in duplicate course calculations.
A number of opinions were expressed regarding limiting duplications
and it was ascertained that the regulations at this institution are
relatively generous in comparison with Procedures elsewhere.

if the regulation were to be approved it would take effect when published

reasonable judgment in the early semesters in extending limits for those
students applying for graduation who otherwice would be unfairly penalized
by application of the regulation.
