Percentages are of the 441 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes: passes (P) and incompletes (I).
How the non-letter outcomes are counted
They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.
By instructor
| Instructor | Predicted GPA | Raw | n | Terms | A range | Workload | Spring 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GREENE, SHELLEEN MAISHA reviews ↗ | 3.54 | 3.54 | 371 | 3 | 73% | average | not teaching it |
| WUEST, BRYAN G reviews ↗ | 3.42 | 3.40 | 70 | 1 | 51% | very light | not teaching it |
Why Predicted is not the Raw average
“Predicted” is shrunk toward the course average, which is itself shrunk toward the department, so an instructor with a handful of students sits near the course mean rather than topping the list.

What comes first
dibs has not read a class page for FILM TV 112 in any term it holds, so it cannot say what comes before it.
Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.
From the registrar's catalog
Lecture/screenings, six hours; discussion, one hour. Examination of cinema--as it has evolved in the U.S. and other countries--as a vehicle to document, comment upon, and enact political and social change. Examination of film movements, producers, industrial conditions, and audience reception practices that have foregrounded use of cinema in political and social movements including U.S. civil rights; anti-war; labor; feminist; lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual; and disability rights. Study of essential terminology and style for writing about film, an increasingly vital competency for responsible citizenship in a media-driven public sphere. Study addresses diversity in terms of race, ethnicity, gender, ability, class, and nationality through lectures, screenings, readings, and assignments that introduce students to theoretical concepts necessary to understand social and political conditions including power, ideology, hegemony, institution, etc. While focus is on the U.S., other countries and other formats for grounding in broader global context are referenced. P/NP or letter grading.
