Final grade distribution

Hi all,

Here is the final grade distribution for those who are interested. I am very pleased that the median final grade came out to be A- (80%), which is slightly higher than in previous years. Congratulations to everyone in the whole class on their performance.

It was a privilege and pleasure to teach each one of you. Our combination of different origins, experiences, interests, styles, ages, knowledge, and extrovertedness really enriched the class. I hope you got what you came for and had fun learning about physics — I sure had a blast teaching the class!

I wish each one of you well in your future studies and in life. As you know, you have a standing offer of a letter of recommendation from me. Now that final grades have been submitted, I am also open to appropriate socializing with students, either individually or in groups. For instance, if you would like to do lunch sometime or have me visit a student pub night to talk about physical science (both of which I have already done with past PMU199Y students), I would love to join you. My general policy is to “go Dutch” with students, to help make the power relationship more symmetrical.

Best wishes and GOOD LUCK!

Your professor, Amanda Peet.
