The responsibility for academic evaluation rests with the faculty. If a student believes they were wrongfully and unfairly evaluated by an instructor, and if the student is not able to resolve the matter in conference with the instructor or the department chair, an appeal may be made to the appeals board of the college offering the course, according to the Academic Appeals Policy found in the Student Handbook, Section 2.1 and the Faculty Handbook, Appendix C.
All thesis and dissertation appeals are heard by the Graduate College Appeals Board.
