Student Rights and Responsibilities
Applies to: Faculty, staff, and students
Humboldt State University must maintain high standards that reflect the nature of an institution of higher learning. Students need to be aware of the academic standards that are expected throughout their college career.
At its regular meeting on September 1, 2020, the University Senate of Humboldt State University recommended to the President a temporary change of grade mode deadline during the Fall 2020 term in credit/no credit optional courses to the last Friday of instruction. Further, the University Senate recommended a temporary change in the add/drop deadline during the Fall 2020 term to the first Monday of the third week of instruction (September 14, 2020). The University Senate policy historically makes such recommendations (such as the one made in 2015).
This policy applies to Faculty, Staff, Volunteers, and Students who function as a Club or student organization advisors, students, and volunteers
