About Grade Liaisons
Grade liaisons are representatives in departments who help faculty get their grades posted on time in collaboration with the Office of the Registrar. They are expected to:
Subscribe to and keep up with the grade liaison campus email list and Registrar Network newsletter
Understand web grading procedures and deadlines well enough to support faculty when they need local assistance with web grading.
Know how to get help from the Office of the Registrar when needed.
Have read the help documents on the Post Final Grades page and refer faculty to them.
Run the Grade Liaison Report in CU-Data before grading deadlines each term to determine which faculty need local support or additional reminders.
Help ensure the integrity of our institution by making sure faculty in their department post their grades on time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Consult with our class scheduling procedures on when and how to change an instructor for a class. For additional questions, please contact academic scheduling.
If possible, work with academic scheduling to change the instructor for the class to the associate chair/chair of the department and explain the situation. If you need further guidance, the department associate chair/chair should contact the Office of the Registrar.
Contact the Office of the Registrar with who to remove (the old grade liaison) from the grade liaison google group and who to add for your department.
CU Data - CUBLD > Records and Registration > General Student Records Data Reports > Grade Liaison Report. This report will show day old data in which grades rosters have been approved and posted. As we approach the final deadline, the Office of the Registrar will send out real time daily updates on all ungraded grade rosters.
Batch grade change requests can only be sent within two weeks after the grading deadline. See our change submitted grades webpage for further instructions and deadlines.
Videos showing faculty and instructors how to access, enter, approve and post grades are found on our post final grades webpage. Please note if you are syncing grades from Canvas, all instructors must still log into MyCUInfo to approve and posted grades.
Instructors can submit grades even after the web grading deadline has passed. However, once NR grades are assigned, instructors will need to submit individual grades through the grade change workflow. See our change submitted grades webpage.
The instructor should email the Office of the Registrar to briefly describe the extenuating circumstances around the grade extension request and to provide the date that grades will be posted. Each request will be evaluated individually.
There are two types of grading access: "Post" and "Grade." Both types are assigned in curriculum management. Post access is assigned to the instructor of record and allows them to change the status of the grading roster (from "Not Approved" to "Approved", or from "Ready to Review" back to "Not Reviewed"). Post access additionally grants the ability to post grades to Campus Solutions. Grade access is for teaching assistants who will help provide grades but not final review and posting.
