Evening Classes

[Faculty Handbook Category #2]

Evening classes during the semester, taught by regular St. Olaf faculty, may be offered on Monday and Thursday between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. Any sequence of three hours may be selected for a course within this six-hour block of time, but times must be listed on the registration schedule, and they may not be changed after the semester has begun.

  1. No department is required to offer such classes.
  2. The number of evening classes is ordinarily limited to two per semester per department.
  3. In exceptional circumstances, to accommodate the schedule of a faculty member  teaching only one course at St. Olaf College or for reasons related to the availability of facilities, a department may offer an evening class on evenings other than Monday and Thursday between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.
  4. The Registrar must approve all courses proposed for evening.  Both the Registrar and Curriculum Committee must approve exceptions to the customary Monday and Thursday evening class times.
