On March 21, an article ran in The A&T Register stating that the faculty senate approved a policy change that states that students must pass Math 101 with a C or better to continue to Math 102.

This information was untrue for the faculty senate never approved such a measure. According to university policy, a “D” is below average, however it is passing in a general education course.

Linda Callahan, former faculty senate chair and journalism professor stated that, “We want students to work hard and do well in every class, but some student do below average work in some classes.

If students make a d “D” and want to repeat a class to learn more or to  get a higher grade, they may do so;  but they should know  they are not required to extend their time to graduation and pay the extra money repeating those courses.”
