[Disgrac]

As a student I wish MNSCU wouldn't have guided MSU Mankato into adopting a new probation and suspension policy where only MSU Mankato credits are used in calculating GPA and completion rate. This is detrimental to students who wish to improve their academic standing and have exhausted all other options. I personally was able to use the former policy to increase my GPA to 2.75 and increase my Completion Ratio. If I hadn't been able to I probably wouldn't be in school anymore. Please reconsider.
