Amid upcoming virtual 2021 summer sessions, the UC Berkeley College of Letters and Science will extend its current pass/no pass, or P/NP, policies.
The decision discussed by the Letters and Science Executive Committee at its April 7 meeting is intended to reduce student stress while encouraging learning during remote instruction, according to Khia Brunelle, Letters and Science coordinator of educational policy.
Jenna Mattinson, campus senior and Letters and Science student, had already planned on taking summer courses but noted that this decision made her feel excited and less stressed.
“I think it is awesome that pass/no pass is being extended through summer,” Mattinson said in an email. “The pandemic isn’t over yet and while life is beginning to go back to normal it is really good to have the pass/no pass option because many students may still have these external issues in place.”
