Students at OU are trying their best to accommodate the current situation of the online learning platform; however, grading is unfair and an inaccurate representation of what OU's students are capable of. OU students who chose to take on the challenge of pursing their degrees in the midst of a pandemic should not be punished for that choice.

The current grading policy was not built for online learning, as reflected in your decision to move to pass/fail last semester.

I have been administered listening exams in my foreign language courses in which the audio cuts out, yet that affects my grade. I have gone into debt trying to recover from losing my job and internships over the summer, forcing me to work full time while being a full time student, yet that affects my grade. I have professors who do not understand how to work technology, yet that affects my grade.

OU, please help set your students up for success.
