历史系公关政策

Students should avoid taking PRs in the courses they need for graduation. (Exceptions are dissertation or thesis hours, 在哪里, 再一次。, the grade of PR is automatic until the submission of the thesis or dissertation.)学生应在提交出色的作业并满足导师在分配PR成绩时所规定的任何其他条件后，尽快从其记录中删除PR. 修读过多pr课程的学生将收到DGS的警告，说明他们在完成学位的过程中没有取得令人满意的进展. Failure to remove the PRs could result in the termination of university financial aid, such as a 减免学费 or a teaching assistantship.
The 历史 Department discourages 学生 from taking PRs in their courses. 该部门还担心，一些学生花了很长时间，有时是几年的时间来完成他们已经获得pr的课程的出色工作. 相应的, the department adopted a policy on the grade of PR, effective with the beginning of academic year 2007-8. 政策是这样的:
Any grade of PR assigned in a history course that an M.A. 或Ph值.D. 学生毕业需求, 除了论文或论文时间, 如果学生在获得PR的学期结束后至少一年内，在入学的第一学期开始时没有完成该课程的突出工作，则该学生的成绩将改为F. (例如, 在秋季学期的课程中获得PR的学生将在下一个学年的秋季学期开始之前完成必要的突出工作，从他/她的成绩单中删除PR.)
学生可向研究生指导申请延期一学期，PR成绩改为F. The extension shall be for reasons of illness, 情有可原的个人情况, 或者其他特殊情况. If the director of graduate studies denies the extension, the student may appeal to the 研究生 Committee, 通过多数投票(研究生主任不投票)，哪一个可以延长一个学期.
本政策不应阻止任何课程的记录教练在授予PR时施加更短的截止日期或附加任何其他条件.
This policy took effect at the beginning of Fall Quarter 2007-8. It will not apply retroactively to grades of PR earned in previous years.
