Grey bars are non-letter outcomes — P/NP, S/U, incompletes. 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 Raw n Terms A range
SHERRER, THOMAS A 3.61 3.61 299 3 74%
KARIMLI, LEYLA 3.80 3.81 151 2 88%
STEINERT-THRELKELD, ZACHARY 3.10 2.99 59 1 42%

“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.
