The final response rate to the course evaluations was 97%. As a result, I will add 5% to the final exam score of every student in the course. I appreciate the feedback I will receive when the results will be made available to me. Frank Wolfs On Mon, 4 May 2026, Frank Wolfs, Physics and Astronomy, U of R wrote:

Since only 3 students completed the survey in the last 24 hours, it does not appear likely we will succeed to reach 95%.

The response rate is no at 89%. 20 more students need to complete the survey for us to reach 95%. If you have not completed the survey yet, please take a few minutes to do so now:

You may just earn an extra 5% on the final exam.

If we reach 95% by Monday May 4, I will add 5% to the final exam grade of every student in the course.
