LLAS 200 Course Evaluation

The Latinx and Latin American Studies Program needs your comments to assist in its evaluation of this course and of the Professor or Lecturer.  The faculty of the College requires that we solicit such comments from every student in each class as the basis for our recommendations concerning tenure and reappointment. These evaluations will remain anonymous.  This is not a “Scrutiny” evaluation form.  It will not be seen or used by students.  Completed forms will be included in the file that we submit as our evidence for tenure and reappointment decision[s] to the Committee of Six, the Dean, and the President. 

Faculty and administrators take these evaluations seriously, both for planning future classes and for faculty review, tenure and promotion.  Your serious attention is appreciated.

High school students, auditors, and others enter 'NA' for the class year.
