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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ALIM, H SAMY | 3.95 | 4.00 | 60 | 1 | 100% |
| HAUCK, JAN DAVID | 3.59 | 3.56 | 60 | 1 | 78% |
| CARTMILL, ERICA A | 3.71 | 3.70 | 50 | 1 | 76% |
“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.
