I will use the university's grading point values to determine letter grades. You can find the university's description of point values that correspond to the various letter grades by visiting the "Grades and Grading" section of the current UMD catalog (scroll way down to the "grade point average" part).

I will post your grades to the UMD eGradebook system. eGradebook will report each assignment for the course, the total number of points for each assignment and cumulatively, and the number of points you have earned for each assignment and cumulatively. The links to "look up your grade" will take you to eGradebook, plus you can get there easily from the One Stop for Students section of the UMD web page.

The University of Minnesota is an equal opportunity educator and employer.
