I am delighted that the UGS committee approved the new breadth requirements.

I was surprised to learn that CAS Math and FLL requirements can be satisfied by such dismal performance (D-). That to me is an embarrassment. I believe university-wide requirements must be satisfied by C- or better - is that right?  We should - in my opinion - have a C- standard for all of these.  It is after all a 1.67 GPA!  Graduation requires a 2.0. I hope we can move with all due haste to make that (a C- minimum) standard across the campus.

Best regards,

Tom
