The registrar's own records: 54 grades over 4 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. Every instructor is pooled here.
What is inside that record
Every one of those terms is a summer session, and summer sessions are counted here.
The table below splits them, and term averages across those 4 terms ran 3.74 to 3.86.
Historical grades for all professors, across recorded terms. The course summary above includes all professors.
- A+ 15 · 27.8%
- A 20 · 37.0%
- A- 9 · 16.7%
- B+ 6 · 11.1%
- B 3 · 5.6%
- B- 1 · 1.9%
- I 4 of 58
Percentages are of the 54 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes: 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.

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.
