Don't you think that NOT leaving it on the transcript deceives the subsequent
reviewer of that transcript (graduate school, etc.)?
We have a policy that allows students to repeat courses that they have passed
and have the second
grade put on their transcript. The first stays but is not used in calculating
the GAP. I
am uncomfortable with that.
