Requests from students include retroactive grade changes, better communication practices and diversity training
Chemistry students submitted a letter of complaints against their lecturer, Dr. Daniel Nurco, to Chemistry Department Chair Jared Shaw and other administrators via email, citing unfair course expectations and discrimination after students said they experienced unprofessional interactions with him.
In the email detailing the complaints, students have requested formal regulation of “reasonable instruction” and communication, as well as “retroactive adjustments to grading policies (notably those for the first midterm exam)” and penalization for Nurco’s unprofessionalism and creation of “an environment in which students feel unsafe.” The letter also requests diversity training and adjustments to either the units or necessary hours to perform well for the course.
