Dressing Down During Finals


PSGA will be collecting cans for the United Ministries of Clinton during the week of Decmber 8 - 12.  We ask that you bring two cans per day that you would like to dress down.  Along with the boxes for the cans, there will be stickers and sheets at the front of the lecture halls for students to write their name, the date, and the number of cans contributed. Thank you in advance! Please remember this is on your honor!  

P3s: Although most of you will not be present, if you can find it in the goodness of your heart, the boxes will be in the lecture halls all this week as well! 

If you have any questions please email Amy DuPont (aldupont@presby.edu)

Evaluation Completion for Dress Down Week: Final Tally


As of this morning, the evaluation completion rates for each class are as follows:
P1: 87%
P2: 77%
P3: 95%

·         Congratulations to the P1 and P3 classes who each achieved the required response rate of at least 85% and are therefore invited to dress down during the week of December 1st through 5th. You will still need to dress professionally for your lab periods/lab finals, but are welcome to dress casually for your classes next week otherwise. Do  make sure to maintain modesty and dress appropriately for ventures outside your home (i.e.; no pajamas).

This is not the end of evaluations for the semester.  All evaluations not yet completed will stay open and ready to receive your feedback through Friday December 12th.  As you are completing any final evaluations, please still keep these notes in mind…
·         Do your best to make your comments count.  You can do this by making them professional, objective, descriptive (by providing examples), and specific to the course or instructor you are evaluating.
·         Don’t fill in comment blanks with not applicable or N/A, etc.  Just skip the box. 

Your feedback is anonymous.  If you have any questions regarding evaluations, feel free to contact Ms. Funderburk, Director of Assessment and Academic Services at mlfunderb@presby.edu.

Thank you sincerely for giving of your time and energy to provide us with your important feedback!!!
