Information School Academic Committees
Academics Standards
The Academic Standards Committee reviews cases in which Information School students are deemed not making satisfactory academic progress. This Committee may recommend action on the status of the student in his/her program.
This Committee also responds to allegations of student academic misconduct in violation of the Student Conduct Code of the University of Washington.
Grievance Committee
The goal of the Grievance Committee is to provide a timely and equitable resolution of academic problems or complaints initiated by students enrolled in the Information School. Pertinent issues shall include, but are not limited to, faculty and school policies affecting individual student academic prerogatives, procedural irregularities in stated grading practices (but not complaints restricted to individual grade changes), fair treatment and similar issues.
Allegations of discrimination based on race, sex, religion, color, national origin, age and/or physical disability will be referred to the University Complaint Investigation and Resolution Office which exists to address such matters.
