text:
Sometimes the villain in a work hits much closer to home than the hero would expect -- it's their parent. Yes, the parent who we've seen throughout the movie, book or show, doing their usual parent stuff and being seemingly a good guy, only to turn out to be evil all along. Can be very shocking if pulled off right.
This also refers to when a character's previously unseen parent is revealed to be evil.
Not the same as LukeIAmYourFather, which is basically the inverse -- the villain (who was previously shown) is suddenly revealed to be the parent, rather than the other way around.
OffingTheOffspring can either ensue after this, or be the way this trope is revealed. When the betrayal backfires, SelfMadeOrphan can be the outcome.
See also ParentalAbandonment, EvilMatriarch, and ArchnemesisDad.
* While on the extremely low end of this trope, ''Anime/{{Beyblade}}'' has Judy Tate, who sandbags her visiting son Max Mizuhara and his friends into being test subjects for the corporation she works at, mostly so they can obtain data to beat the Bladebreakers. Later in the series, she does aid them, and is not truly a big bad. Also, when her son's victory [[spoiler: causes a power surge that wipes out all her research]] she smiles and simply starts over, and wishes her boy well. But she sees no conflict in using her son this way, openly mocks his philosophy (while half-allowing for the possibility of it) until beaten, and chides his teammates for not seeing the deceptive methods she used as 'a friendly match', and the only ones who call her out are the other people at her corporation, who wonder if her loyalty to Max will affect their research.
* There would be no Far Side routes if this wasn't the case for Shiki/Akiha in ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}''. [[spoiler:Foster father, sure, but considered to be his father more than Kiri Nanaya is except by his doctor.]]
* [[spoiler:Natsuki]] of ''Anime/MaiHime'' has this happen to her mother. In the anime, [[spoiler:it's revealed that her mother was planning to sell her to the Searrs Foundation, although after a period of doubt, Natsuki decides to believe in the mother she remembers]]. In the manga, [[spoiler:Natsuki's mother arrives as part of the Searrs takeover of the school, and Natsuki has to fight against her, although at the end of the fight, after Natsuki's mother comes to her senses and ends up TakingTheBullet for her daughter, the two reconcile]].
* ''Franchise/CodeGeass'' has every other bad parenting trope covered, so it should be little surprise that this one does as well. The real surprise is ''who'': [[spoiler:Lelouch's lost mother, Marianne vi Britannia, who turns out to be [[LadyMacbeth in league with Charles and his plan to kill God]]]].
[[folder:Comic Books]]
* This is the premise of Marvel's ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}''. Children learn that their parents are supervillains, and run away from home, fearing they would otherwise grow up to be like them.
* The ''[[Comicbook/GrantMorrisonsBatman Batman R.I.P.]]'' comics storyline toys with the possibility that the villain responsible for the defining tragedy in Bruce Wayne's life was [[spoiler: Thomas Wayne, who had his wife Martha killed while faking his own death]]. The conclusion of the story kinda seems to confirm that someone was just messing with him in the end.
** [[http://asylums.insanejournal.com/scans_daily/235391.html#cutid1 Jason Todd]], as you know, [[ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily had horrible luck with his mom too]]. After finding out that his mother who raised him was not his biological mother, Jason sets out across the globe searching for his birth mother. Eventually Jason is reunited with her; however Jason's mother is evil. There is really no other way to describe a woman who would so willingly and suddenly [[http://i30.tinypic.com/2nr1xy1.jpg betray her fifteen year old son]] to [[http://i26.tinypic.com/dlsveo.jpg the Joker]] and [[http://i27.tinypic.com/2vwzd76.jpg actually stand there watching him be beaten brutally to near death with a crow bar]], all the while looking none too fazed. After all this happens, [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder the Joker betrays her]], ties her up and leaves her and Jason in a room with a bomb. Jason, injured though he is, tries to save the mother who just betrayed him. He cuts the ropes binding her and together they make it to the door. [[http://i25.tinypic.com/28jzewg.jpg Naturally the door is locked.]] The bomb explodes, Jason and his mother die. He got better.
*** The worst part about all of this is that whenever Jason's death is brought up, his mother is ''never'' mentioned. Jason's always blamed for his own death. Granted, nobody else besides the Joker knew that she betrayed Jason and led him into a trap, but it gets to the point where you wonder if even ''Jason himself'' remembers what actually happened.
** And Bruce's son Damian hasn't been much luckier. He wasn't pleased at all when his mother Talia willingly allowed Slade to control his body by means of implanting a device in his spine. And when he supported Dick and Bruce's ideals rather than his Talia's, [[spoiler: he found out that Talia had actually created another clone of Damian because he wasn't "perfect enough". Then she kicked him out from the house of Al Ghul and told him not to come back, while all Damian wanted was some of his mother's love.]] JerkAssWoobie indeed. This culminates in [[spoiler:Damian's death at the hands of his own clone. He even pleads with his mother to call off the attack, but she does nothing as the clone impales her own son on a sword.]]
* In ''Film/HotFuzz'', it turns out the mastermind behind all the 'accidents' is [[spoiler:Frank Butterman]].
* Nathan in ''Film/RepoTheGeneticOpera'', although the reveal comes immediately after the first scene with him.
* TheReveal in ''Film/TheGeneralsDaughter''. [[spoiler:The general covered up his own daughter's gang-rape to protect the reputation of West Point and to secure a promotion for himself. This betrayal hurt her more than the rape ever did. She was so miserable that the investigators told her father that he was the one who truly murdered his daughter -- the guy who shot her had merely put her out of her misery.]]
* She's not evil, but Sherry's mother in ''Film/MouthToMouth'' ends up joining the cult instead of trying to get her daughter to leave. Even after Sherry realizes how screwed up everything is (partly due to her mother agreeing with everyone else to punish her for no good reason) and decides to leave, her mom stays.
* In the ''Literature/GreyGriffins'' books, Max's father turns out to be evil and wishes to use Max to gain access to a world-destroying artifact. He has no qualms about killing his own son and his son's friends - genuinely shocking to Max, since he doesn't get along with his mom, and had always preferred his dad.
* In Canadian teen adventure novel, ''Jack's Knife'', a girl's father is involved in some criminal operation. He binds and gags his own daughter, which freaks out the main character (who is thinking "my god! She's your own daughter!"). When the man's partner suggests doing away with the kids, he is nice enough to suggest that doing so would be a bad idea ("we don't want to be wanted for murder as well"), but it's left unclear whether this is for selfish reasons, or to spare his daughter's life.
[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* ''Series/{{Alias}}'': Irina betrays Sydney several times over the course of her life starting with abandoning her by faking her own death and kidnapping her while Syd is pregnant to try and find one of the many Rambaldi artifacts.
* ''Series/TwentyFour'': [[spoiler:Jack's father]] was a Big Bad, the Man behind the Man ([[spoiler:Graem]]) behind the Man ([[spoiler:President Logan]]) behind the Man (attempted assassination of the Russian President). [More behind the Mans possible, I can't keep track.] Attempted to kill his son. [[spoiler:And he did kill his other son Graem for failing him.]]
* Played straight and then inverted in ''Series/{{Angel}}'s'' final season episode "Lineage". Roger Wyndam-Pryce, Wesley's father. It turns out he intends to steal Angel's free will. Then it turns out he was a robot (which was shot by Wesley ''before'' the revelation).
* [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation Depending on who you ask]], this may be present in ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' in the form of River and Simon Tam's parents, whose callous disregard for River's plight at the [[SchoolForScheming Academy]] may have been due to foreknowledge of what the Academy was [[MindRape doing to her]].
* ''Series/{{Justified}}'': Arlo betrays Raylan several times.
* On ''Series/{{NCIS}}'', Ziva being kidnapped by hostile terrorists and nearly murdered multiple times can be linked back to her own father.
** An episode has a model die during the shooting of a reality TV show on a base, only for Gibbs and Co. discover that the man responsible was her agent who, while not biologically related, had adopted her as a teenager. The woman had begun a relationship with a sergeant, and was going to give up modelling to be with him.
* ''Series/PrisonBreak'' has Christina Rose Scofield who ends up trying to kill both her sons.
* May be small compared to the other examples in this trope, but it's discovered at the end of the ''Series/{{Awkward}}'' season 1 finale that the 'carefrontational' letter was written by Jenna's mom, Lacey.
* ''Series/HouseOfAnubis'' done by Mr. Sweet- Eddie's father. A bit of dramatic irony, too, as the viewers and the rest of Sibuna knew that Mr.Sweet was a member of Team Evil but nobody told Eddie, and when he found out he was completely devastated. Gets even worse after Mr.Sweet starts proactively manipulating Sibuna to further the plans of his own team-- and knowingly hurting Eddie in the process.
* Series/VeronicaMars has Aaron Echolls and to a much lesser extent Veronica's Mum who abandons Veronica twice and the second time she does it she takes Veronica's college fund for good measure.
* In ''The Red Road'', Philip's dad Jack is aloof (when he's not ordering his son to commit crimes for him) and clearly wasn't around while Philip was growing up. It gets worse when Philip finds out that his dad is the reason he was sent to prison before the events of the show.
* In ''Series/KamenRiderDrive,'' we get a doozy. [[spoiler: Kiriko and Gou's father, Professor Banno, was one of the creators of this year's villains, the Roidmudes, but it was always assumed that it was a case of AIIsACrapshoot. Nope, Banno is basically Davros; the Roidmudes' current state is his deliberate doing, and the Heart Roidmude, the BigBad until that point, was horribly abused by him and basically a case of TheDogBitesBack. Banno betrays the SCU and his own children, lets us know he sees even his own children as a means to his dark but as-yet-not-fully-understood ends, and rises to the role of BigBad. Right now, dealing with him is ''everyone's'' main concern, good guys and bad guys alike.]] HumansAreTheRealMonsters, indeed!
* Gaia of Myth/GreekMythology did this to three generations' worth of her divine progeny after they pissed her off by empowering the next generation. Her first son Uranus [[ParentalIncest who was also her first consort]] was jealous and fearful of their children the Titans and trapped them inside Gaia. A pissed off Gaia forged a huge sickle and gave it to her youngest son Cronus and had him ''[[GroinAttack castrate]]'' Uranus with it. Cronus eventually turned out to be NotSoDifferent from Uranus and trapped his non-Titanic siblings, the Hechatonchaires and the Cyclopses, inside Gaia since he feared their power. Being GenreSavvy, Cronus knew that Gaia would try to turn his own children against him in revenge, so he ''ate his own children after they were born.'' A pissed off Gaia conspired with Cronus' wife Rhea to save the last child Zeus, and raised him to be a LaserGuidedTykeBomb against his father. After Zeus and his fellow Olympians eventually prevailed, they stuck the Titans who refused to surrender to them in the deepest pits of Tartarus, which upset Gaia since she didn't want her children to suffer such a horrible punishment. A pissed off Gaia then sent various giant monsters such as her youngest and strongest offspring [[EldritchAbomination Typhon]] to overthrow the Olympians. This chain of betrayal ended when Zeus and the Olympians defeated the threats sent by Gaia, proving that they had surpassed her.
[[folder:New Media]]
* [[spoiler:Sarah]]'s dad and [[spoiler:Bree]]'s mom in ''WebVideo/Lonelygirl15'' are both examples.
* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'': The Emperor (not yet God-) was many things, but a good father was ''not'' one of them. Most of the Primarchs who fell did so due to his giving exactly zero consideration to what they wanted:
** Angron was on the eve of leading a GladiatorRevolt on his home planet when the Emperor showed up. Rather than help him win the day or even, y'know, bring down an OrbitalBombardment or five dozen from his fleet, the Emperor teleported Angron away so as not to lose any time on his grand conquest of the galaxy. The revolt was easily crushed, with Angron's comrades died thinking he'd run away or worse, betrayed them.
** The one that started it all: Lorgar was the first to view the Emperor as a god, and his Legion took longer than the others to reconquer planets because they kept building temples and proselytizing the natives. The Emperor showed up with Ultramarines in tow, made the Word Bearers watch as they tore down the temples, and finally kneel before them. Little wonder that Lorgar paid attention when he heard about [[GodOfEvil gods that rewarded faith and loyalty]], or that he'd end up converting Horus to his cause.
** Magnus was aware of Horus' treachery before the Emperor was. Unfortunately, he chose to deliver the message by teleporting to Terra using forbidden magics, which destroyed the Webway Gate the Emperor was building. Instead of heeding Magnus' warnings, he declared Magnus the traitor, and sicced the [[Literature/SpaceWolf Space Wolves]] on his homeworld Prospero.
** Mortarion was raised by a barbarian warlord, one of the few adapted to their homeworld's poisonous atmosphere. Those who could survive the mountain fogs regularly preyed on the regular humans living in the unpolluted areas, Mortarion eventually rebelling against his adoptive father and joining them. When the Emperor arrived, he allowed Mortarion a single chance to carry out his vendetta, intervening when the fog proved too much even for the Primarch. Mortarion later believed the Emperor had become just another tyrant like the man who'd raised him (their views on the Warp being diametrically opposed didn't help matters), joining horus once he rebelled.
** Konrad Curze was essentially ComicBook/ThePunisher, {{ComicBook/Batman}} and {{ComicBook/Wolverine}} rolled into one, brutally murdering those he saw as criminals, in addition to suffering from horrific visions of things to come. This made him susceptible to Chaos corruption and made him even more unstable (though persuaded of the innate righteousness of his actions), culminating in his being assassinated on the Emperor's orders.
--> Your presence does not surprise me, Assassin. I have known of you ever since your craft entered the Eastern Fringes. Why did I not have you killed? Because your mission and the act you are about to commit proves the truth of all I have ever said or done. I merely punished those who had wronged, just as your false Emperor now seeks to punish me. Death is nothing compared to vindication.
[[folder:Video Games]]
* ''Franchise/GodOfWar'' features, Zeus betraying his son, Kratos in the second game. Zeus commits this betrayal out of fear that Kratos would kill Zeus and usurp his throne as ruler of Olympus, taking into evidence Kratos' destructive behavior and scorn towards the gods out of their refusal to erase his nightmares about his slaughtered family. Zeus does this betrayal by taking some of Kratos' godly powers and putting them into the colossus of Rhodes, tricking Kratos into giving up his remaining powers to obtain the blade of Olympus, and then wounding and murdering Kratos. Of course Kratos is healed and swears vengeance on Zeus which results in a lot of gods getting killed for two games.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Mass Effect|1}}'', Wrex eventually explains that he was a leader of his people back on his homeworld following the Krogan Rebellions. He was advocating peace so that the Krogan could rebuild, but his father, Jarrod, was a rival warlord pushing for war. Wrex and Jarrod agreed to meet at neutral ground to discuss their differences. Being [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy krogan]], though, it could only end [[BlastOut one way]]. Jarrod's troops managed to wipe out Wrex's followers, forcing him to leave the planet both for his own survival and because he was disgusted with his own species' self-destructive nature, but not before Wrex managed to kill his father for the betrayal.
* The ''Franchise/SilentHill'' series does this several times:
** In the original ''VideoGame/{{Silent Hill|1}}'', Dahlia Gillespie set her own daughter on fire, but magically kept her alive, to force the girl to use her magic powers for Dahlia's own sinister purposes. This is referenced in ''VideoGame/SilentHill3'' and ''VideoGame/SilentHillOrigins''.
** In ''VideoGame/SilentHillHomecoming'', [[spoiler:the descendants of the town founders all killed their kids as a sacrifice, except for Alex's parents. They had intended to kill Alex, but complications arose, and Alex's dad went back on his "duty."]]
* ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'' has [[spoiler:Adria]], in one of the cruelest betrayals of the entire series, [[spoiler:revealing herself to be Diablo's high priestess before using the Black Soulstone, with all seven Great Evils inside, on her own daughter Leah, who she had for the sole purpose of using her as the vessel for Diablo's rebirth as the Prime Evil.]]
* ''VideoGame/BlazBlue''. Carl Clover, a young boy who's innocent and cheery, was deeply traumatized when it turns out his father Relius nonchalantly turned his sister Ada into a Nox Nyctores, a mechanical doll known as Nirvana... and it was incomplete, and he just left the incomplete Nirvana for Carl to finish. This event caused Carl to become extremely bitter to both the world and adults in general. Making matters worse, the next time he met Relius, he found out that Relius did the same to Carl's mom, Relius' wife, Ignis, and ''still'' with the same nonchalant attitude of ForScience.
* Strongly hinted to be the case in ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry'' with [[spoiler:Battler's parents, Rudolf and Kyrie who takes the chance when the gold is found and kills everyone except Battler and Eva.]]
* VideoGame/TheLegendOfDragoon has Dart's father turn out the be the BigBad. [[spoiler:It turns out he was possessed by Melbu Frahma, but still.]]
[[folder:Western Animation]]
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' it turns out that [[spoiler: Hiroshi Sato]] is an Equalist. The traditional "WeCanRuleTogether" spiel is given, but the child violently refuses. [[spoiler:Culminates in an attempt at ''OffingTheOffspring'' in the finale when Asami claims that Hiroshi doesn't love her late mother anymore since he's too full of hatred. Hiroshi declares that she's beyond "saving" and seriously tries to murder her. Bolin rightly calls Hiroshi a horrible father, and Asami agrees.]]

Academic Actions and Exceptions
Academic actions and exceptions are used to record a student's progress through the university and to document various administrative and academic situations. Actions can be grouped into two broad categories: (1) those that permit exceptions to program requirements and school/university policies and (2) those that affect a student's standing in the university—e.g., probation or transferring from one program to another.
As the undergraduate dean's office, Education Academic Services (EAS) is responsible for reviewing, approving, documenting, and sometimes initiating academic actions and exceptions. To be posted to a student's record, exceptions must go through several steps. Exceptions may be initiated either by program faculty/staff or by EAS staff. EAS staff and faculty/staff often consult about a specific exception. Once an exception has been approved, it is processed either as an official "Dean's action" or as a DARS exception. Students can find a record of dean's actions on their printed unofficial transcript (also called the student record) or on their DARS report. A DARS exception will be reflected in the individual student's DARS report.
Exceptions to faculty approved program requirements generally include course substitutions and rarely involve course or program requirement waivers. Exceptions to campus or School policies include permission for adding or dropping a course beyond the deadlines, waiving senior or major residency requirements, extending the deadline for meeting a deficiency or finishing an Incomplete, and permitting students to repeat a course for credit. A request for an exception requires careful consideration from all parties involved. Students should be prepared to explain the reasoning behind a request and offer supporting documentation.
Substantial consultation time with faculty, staff, and/or deans may be required, so students should not expect to receive an immediate answer to a request during the initial appointment.
Academic Standing: Dean's List, Academic Probation, etc.
To remain in good academic standing in the School of Education, students must earn both a semester grade point average (GPA) and a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.5. While the 2.5 grade point average may not be sufficient to permit students to be considered for admission to their program of choice, it is the minimum required to remain in the School of Education. This may be substantially higher than minimum grade point average requirements in other schools/colleges on campus.
Dean's List. Students have at least a 2.5 cumulative GPA and 3.5 or higher for the semester. Students must have received no incompletes in graded courses, no unreported grades, or end-of-semester academic actions for the semester. Credit/no credit and pass/fail courses are not considered in meeting the requirements for the Dean's List.
Probation. A student's grade point average for a particular semester falls below 2.5, while the cumulative campus GPA remains at or above 2.5. Students must earn a minimum 2.5 grade point average on the next semester's coursework to be removed from probation status.
Strict Probation. Strict Probation occurs when either (1) a student's cumulative GPA falls below a 2.5 OR (2) a student already on probation earns less than a 2.5 grade point average for the subsequent semester. To be in good standing, students on strict probation must earn both a 2.5 GPA on the next semester's coursework and also have a cumulative GPA of 2.5 by the end of the next semester.
Continued Strict Probation. A student already on strict probation obtained a 2.5 GPA or above on the next semester's coursework, but the cumulative GPA is still below 2.5. Once both grade point averages are at or above 2.5, the student will be in good academic standing.
May Not Continue in the School of Education. Students on strict probation or continued strict probation who earn less than a 2.5 GPA on the next semester's work will receive notice that they may not continue in the School of Education. Students on May Not Continue status who do not seek or are not granted permission to continue may be withdrawn from the university and dropped from courses ("disenrolled"). Students are expected to contact EAS immediately to discuss options, including transfer to another school or college on campus, transfer to another university, or withdrawal from UW–Madison.
Students on Strict Probation or Continued Strict Probation status have an enrollment hold placed on their record for the subsequent semester. These students are not permitted to enroll until they have met with an EAS advisor.
Additional Major
School of Education students may be permitted to complete an additional major with their School of Education degree program. Important: Students must have been admitted to the professional part of their degree program to be eligible to add an additional major; pre-professional students cannot add another major.
Education students wishing to complete an additional major in the College of Letters & Science must complete these steps:
- Print the Major Declaration form
- Contact the department that houses the major of interest. Meet with the undergraduate major advisor there, if appropriate. Complete the Major Declaration form and obtain departmental approval (usually a signature or stamp).
- Take the form to Education Academic Services, 139 Education Building, 1000 Bascom Mall, and ask for a dean's action to permit the additional major. Staff at EAS will take the action and send the form to the registrar's office. Note: Students in the School of Education should not take the form to the L&S Student Academic Affairs office —even if this is the advice of departmental staff. Requests for an additional major will be rejected by the registrar's office for lack of the appropriate dean's approval.
- Students will be granted a degree at the end of the fall, spring, or summer semesters in which all School of Education degree requirements are complete. Graduation will not be postponed if students have an unfinished additional major or certificate program that is not required for the degree.
Exceptions to the requirements of an additional major or certificate program must be approved by the department and school/college dean's office in which the major or certificate program is located.
Attendance Policies
Faculty and instructors may require students to attend scheduled meetings of a class and/or to participate in other course-related activities, including distance activities. Students are responsible for materials presented in such meetings or activities. Because courses are designed and conducted in diverse ways, faculty and instructors are expected to inform students in writing at the beginning of each course if there are specific expectations for attendance/participation, including whether any component of the grade is based on such attendance/participation.
Auditing a Course
A student may audit a course only if the instructor consents and if no laboratory or performance skills are required. (The second restriction usually prevents students from auditing Dance or Art courses.) Auditors do not participate in classroom discussions or take examinations, but are expected to attend with reasonable regularity and do some assigned work.
Audited courses carry no degree credits, are not graded, do not count in determining full-time/part-time load for enrollment certification in an academic term, and do not meet degree requirements for School of Education students. Students interested in auditing a course should confer with their EAS advisor. The deadline to change a course from credit to audit is the end of the fourth week of classes; no exceptions to this deadline are permitted.
Concurrent Enrollment at Two Institutions
School of Education students may occasionally choose to take courses at another institution—e.g., Madison College or Independent Learning through UW–Extension—while being a fully enrolled student on the UW–Madison campus. This is generally permitted, but does require a specific dean's action. Full-time or part-time student status is usually determined by the credits taken at UW–Madison only; thus, students who take only nine credits on campus and three credits at another institution may not be considered full-time students.
Continuation Requirement: Department of Kinesiology
All students admitted to undergraduate programs in the Department of Kinesiology, including Physical Education, must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.75, based on all UW–Madison campus coursework. A student whose GPA falls below 2.75 will be placed on probation for the following semester. If the GPA remains below a 2.75 at the end of the probationary semester, the student will receive a discontinuation letter indicating that they must transfer out of the Department of Kinesiology. A hold will be placed on the student's registration for the second semester following the probationary semester, until the transfer is complete. Students in this situation must transfer to another School of Education program, another UW–Madison school/college, to another institution altogether, or must withdraw from the university.
If a student wishes to appeal being discontinued in the department, it must be done in writing to the Chair of the Undergraduate Studies Committee within 30 days of the date of the notification letter. The Undergraduate Studies Committee may request that the student appear in person at an Undergraduate Studies Committee meeting to present the case.
If a negative decision is reached by the Undergraduate Studies Committee, a student may choose to appeal in writing to the Department of Kinesiology Student Affairs Committee within 30 days of the date of the notification.
If a negative decision is reached by the Department's Student Affairs Committee, a student may choose to appeal in writing to the Chair of the Department of Kinesiology within 30 days of the date of the notification.
If a negative decision is reached by the Chair of the Department of Kinesiology, a student may choose to follow the School of Education Grievance Policy.
In the event of a positive decision at any level, the student will be allowed to continue for one semester in order to raise the GPA to 2.75 or higher. A 2.75 cumulative GPA is required to graduate from the Department of Kinesiology.
Credit Overload Permission
The School of Education allows students to carry a maximum of 18 credits per semester without special permission. School of Education undergraduates may, with an academic dean's permission, enroll for more than 18 credits in a semester. Students must confer with a School of Education academic dean about such a request. Students must be in excellent academic standing to be considered for a credit overload and will be liable for the additional tuition costs beyond 18 credits.
During summer sessions, students may, as a rule, carry one credit per week of instruction. The maximum credit load for Education students for the entire summer session is 12. Session-specific limits follow the rule of 1 credit per week of instruction, except 9 credits are allowed in the Eight-Week General Session. Students must obtain permission from an academic dean to carry an overload in any of the summer sessions.
School of Education programs require a minimum of 120 credits in all programs for graduation, although many programs will require more. Most students will complete additional credits. To earn 120 credits in four years (eight semesters), students must average 15 credits per semester. The number of credits carried each semester may depend upon a student's preparation, motivation, course selection, employment, and extracurricular activities.
Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS)
The Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS) is an automated reflection of a student's academic progress toward completion of a degree. A DARS report shows which requirements have already been completed and which requirements remain unsatisfied. It can offer suggestions about appropriate courses that may be taken to meet specific requirements and can assist in the academic planning process.
Students can access DARS reports through their Student Center in My UW–Madison. Go to the Academics tab and find DARS on the dropdown menu. It is strongly recommended that a report be run whenever a registration change (i.e., adding or dropping a class) is made.
Students can also request a "what-if" DARS report. This feature makes it possible to select any number of programs and/or majors on campus and run a DARS report as if pursuing this option. School of Education students in a pre-professional classification such as Pre-Elementary (PRE) should request a "what if" DARS report of the professional program that is of interest. The "what-if" option is also an excellent tool for students considering new or additional areas of study.
DARS is not intended to replace student contact with academic advisers. It encourages a more beneficial relationship between student and adviser because valuable advising time is not lost calculating how courses and credits fit into requirements. The quick and thorough analysis provided by DARS allows more time in an advising appointment to discuss course options, research opportunities, graduate school, or issues of personal interest or concern to students. DARS is the document of record, i.e., certifying document of degree completion, for most program areas in the School of Education.
Directed/Independent Study
Directed Study, also called Independent Study, offers the student an opportunity to work with a School of Education faculty member on an individual topic of interest. Most School of Education departments make directed study courses available to students on the basis of the student's preparation and motivation and a faculty member's willingness to accept the student in such an endeavor. Directed Study courses are numbered 199, 299, 399, and 699.
This study option is intended primarily for advanced students who have a depth of knowledge in a field, the self-discipline necessary for independent work, and strong motivation to pursue a special project. Some program areas limit the number of Directed Study credits that can be applied to major or minor requirements.
Directed Study is taken as a supplement to, but not as a replacement for, available course offerings. In this way, it may be used to expand areas of particularly strong interest. Extra responsibility is required from the faculty member involved, and no member of the faculty is obligated to accept a proposal for a directed study project. Students should have a well-defined outline of the topic to be studied before discussing the project with a faculty member.
Both the student and instructor must follow UW–Madison's Policy on Directed/Independent Study for Undergraduates. Important components of this document include, but are not limited to:
- The student's responsibility to develop a written study plan, in collaboration and agreement with the instructor, consistent with the responsibilities of the instructor. The study plan will include expectations for learning and student work, the time and place for regular meetings, the number of credits to be earned, and any other issues related to the learning experience.
- Guidelines for assigning the appropriate number of credits to the Directed Study.
- Responsibilities of the Directed Study instructor
- The approval process for enrolling in a Directed Study after the course add deadline (usually the end of the second week of class in fall and spring semesters)
Dual Degrees
Students may be permitted to complete two degrees simultaneously. For example, students may complete two degree programs in the School of Education or may choose a degree program in the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences along with their School of Education degree. Not all schools/colleges permit dual degrees—e.g., this is not permitted by the College of Letters & Science or by the College of Engineering. Students should confer with an academic dean regarding the ability and feasibility of completing two degrees programs simultaneously. Students wishing to earn two undergraduate degrees must follow these academic policies:
- If the two degrees to be earned are within the School of Education, at least 30 additional credits and all course and grade point requirements for the second degree must be completed for the second degree. When the first degree requires 120 credits, a minimum of 150 credits for most majors would be required. The two degree programs must differ sufficiently to permit the total credits to be accumulated. Courses may count toward the fulfillment of both degree programs. Permission to complete two degrees simultaneously requires the academic dean's approval. This approval, and the formal academic action permitting the dual degree work, should be sought as early as possible to ensure that it is feasible to complete both degrees.
- If the two degrees to be earned are from two different schools/colleges (one degree in Education and one degree in another school or college on this campus), the following academic policies shall be followed:
- Permission to complete two degrees simultaneously requires academic dean's approval from both schools/colleges. Students should see their current dean's office for the required paperwork.
- Admission into the other school/college shall be based on the admission criteria for that particular school/college and, when necessary, particular program.
- The two degree programs must differ sufficiently so that the combined total requirements for the two degrees are at least 150 credits.
- The student's program must be reviewed and approved in both colleges before the start of a student's senior year in residence.
- The degree from each college will be awarded simultaneously.
- Exceptions to degree requirements must be taken by staff from the school/college linked to the particular degree.
Grades and Grading
Grading System. See Enrollment and Records for detailed information on the campus grading system, including the list of possible grades and their impact on a student's grade point average.
Credit/No Credit Courses. Courses designated as being offered on a Credit/No Credit basis are indicated on the transcript as either CR, meaning the student earned the credits for which the course was offered, or N, meaning that the student did not earn any credit even though enrolled for the course. Students may not take such courses on any other basis.
"F" Grade Policies. If the course is repeated, the original F will remain on the transcript and will be included in computing the GPA. If a grade of F, N (no credit), or U (unsatisfactory) is received in student teaching or in courses within required practica, the course may be repeated only if the faculty adviser, the supervisor of the practicum or student teaching, and the appropriate associate dean gives approval. A third attempt to register in a course under these conditions is not allowed.
Incompletes. A grade of "Incomplete" may be reported for a student who has carried a subject with passing grades until near the end of the semester and then, because of illness or other unusual and substantiated cause beyond the student's control, has been unable to take or complete the final examination, or to complete some limited amount of term work. An Incomplete is not given to a student who stays away from a final examination except as indicated above. In the absence of substantiated cause, the grade shall be F. Even with such proof, if the student's work has convinced the instructor that s/he cannot pass the course, the grade shall be F.
Any Incomplete taken by School of Education students must be completed by the end of the student's next semester of residence (specifically, by the last day of classes), excluding Summer Sessions. If the work is not completed by this deadline, the Incomplete will lapse into a Failure unless the time limit has been extended in writing by the dean's office. (Note that this differs for College of Letters & Science students: Incompletes for these students must be completed by the end of the fourth week of classes of the student's next semester of residence at UW–Madison, excluding Summer Sessions.)
Pass/Fail Grading. All undergraduate students are eligible to take a course on a pass/fail basis if they request the option prior to the deadline and are in good academic standing at the time they request pass/fail. Good academic standing for this purpose means that students have a minimum 2.5 cumulative grade-point average based on UW–Madison coursework. Undergraduates may carry one course on a pass/fail basis per term. (Each year's summer sessions collectively count as a single term.)
Pass/fail can be chosen only for elective courses. Required courses cannot be taken on a pass/fail basis. The School of Education may reject pass/fail requests for non-elective work, but it is the student's responsibility to be sure that the requested course is an elective. Courses taken on a pass/fail basis will not count for non-elective requirements—even if they would normally count toward such requirements.
Students may submit pass/fail requests via their Student Center link from the time that they register until midnight on the Friday at the end of the fourth week of fall and spring semesters. For modular and summer session courses, pass/fail requests must be submitted by midnight Friday of the week in which the session is one-fourth completed. Students may not cancel or add the pass/fail option after the deadline for submitting Pass/Fail Option Forms.
Instructors are not notified when a student elects the pass/fail option. (Students can see whether a course is pass/fail in their Student Center.) When a course is taken on a pass/fail basis, the instructor reports a letter grade, which is converted by the registrar to an S (satisfactory) or U (unsatisfactory). The grade of S shall be recorded by the registrar in place of instructors' grades of A, AB, B, BC, or C. The grade of U shall be recorded by the registrar in place of instructors' grades of D or F. Neither the S nor the U is used in computing the grade-point average. A student must earn at least a C to receive credit for the course.
Please note that courses completed on a pass/fail basis do not apply toward liberal studies, major, minor, or professional education requirements for graduation. Students planning graduate study should not take courses on a pass/fail basis if these are pre-professional requirements for admission to graduate and/or professional programs. Individuals who are undecided about a major should avoid taking a course on a pass/fail basis that might later become a required course needed to complete a major. Students may wish to consult with an advisor before taking a course on a pass/fail basis.
Six-Week Grades. Only first-year students receive midterm, or "six-week" grades. Midterm grades for first year students are prepared at the end of the sixth week of classes and are made available to students in their Student Center in My UW on Monday of the eighth week. An email is sent out to all students with six-week grades informing them of their availability in the Student Center.
The goal of six-week grades is to provide students with important feedback about course enrollment and performance before the course drop deadline. Students should check their six-week grade report to make sure all courses are listed and grades indicated. An "NW" means that "No Work" has been turned in; students who have been attending the course should contact the instructor immediately. In the case of a course registration problem, students should see their EAS advisor immediately.
Grades from Transfer Courses. Grades from transfer courses are not posted to the UW–Madison transcript; however, the School of Education uses all attempted transferable coursework to determine program admission eligibility and selection grade point average. Students should be aware that grades earned at another institution will be included in admission calculations. (Courses for which an "F" is earned do not transfer to UW–Madison.) Student should see their School of Education advisor if they have additional questions about this policy.
Grievance Policy in the School of Education
Any student who feels that he or she has been treated unfairly by a faculty or staff member has the right to complain about the treatment and to receive a prompt hearing of the grievance, following these grievance procedures. The complaint may concern course grades, classroom treatment, program admission, or other issues. To insure a prompt and fair hearing of any complaint, and to protect both the rights of the student and the person at whom the complaint is addressed, the procedures below are used in the School of Education.
The person whom the complaint is directed against must be an employee of the School of Education. Any student or potential student may use these procedures unless the complaint is covered by other campus rules or contracts. The following steps are available within the School of Education when a student has a grievance:
- The student should first talk with the person against whom the grievance is directed. Most issues can be settled at this level. If the complaint is directed against a teaching assistant, and the student is not satisfied, the next step would be to talk to the TA's supervisor, who is usually the course professor. If the complaint is not resolved satisfactorily, the student may continue to step 2.
- If the complaint does not involve an academic department, the procedure outlined in Step 4 below should be followed. If the complaint involves an academic department, the student should contact the chair of the department. The chair will attempt to resolve the problem informally. If this cannot be done to the student's satisfaction, the student may submit the grievance to the chair in writing. This must be done within 60 calendar days of the alleged unfair treatment.
- On receipt of a written complaint, the chair will refer the matter to a departmental committee, which will obtain a written response from the person at whom the complaint is directed. This response shall be shared with the person filing the grievance. The chair will provide a timely written decision to the student on the action taken by the committee.
- If either party is not satisfied with the decision of the department, he or she has five working days from receipt of the decision to contact the dean's office (at the number below), indicating the intention to appeal. If the complaint does not involve an academic department in the school, the student must contact the dean's office within 60 calendar days of the alleged unfair treatment.
- In either case, there will be an attempt to resolve the issue informally by the associate dean. If this cannot be done, the complaint can be filed in writing with the dean's office. This must be done within 10 working days of the time the appealing party was notified that informal resolution was unsuccessful.
- On receipt of such a written complaint, the associate dean will convene a subcommittee of the school's Equity & Diversity Committee. This subcommittee may ask for additional information from the parties involved and may hold a hearing at which both parties will be asked to speak separately. The subcommittee will then make a written recommendation to the dean of the School of Education who will render a decision. Unless a longer time is negotiated, this written decision shall be made within 20 working days from the date when the grievance was filed with the dean's office.
Questions about these procedures can be directed to the School of Education Dean's Office, 377 Education Building, 1000 Bascom Mall, 608-262-1763.
State law contains additional provisions regarding discrimination and harassment. Wisconsin Statutes 36.12 reads, in part: "No student may be denied admission to, participation in or the benefits of, or be discriminated against in any service, program, course or facility of the system or its institutions or center because of the student's race, color, creed, religion, sex, national origin, disability, ancestry, age, sexual orientation, pregnancy, marital status or parental status." In addition, UW–System prohibits discrimination based on gender identity or gender expression. Students have the right to file discrimination and harassment complaints with the Office for Equity and Diversity, 179A Bascom Hall, 608-263-2378, email@example.com ,Wisconsin Telecommunications Relay Service: 7-1-1.
Independent Learning Course Enrollment
Students occasionally elect to take an Independent Learning course by correspondence/email through the University of Wisconsin–Extension. Many of the courses offered through Independent Learning (IL) can count toward specific degree requirements and students have an entire year to complete the coursework. Individuals interested in enrolling in an Independent Learning course should note the following important issues:
Course equivalencies. Independent Learning courses are not automatically transferable as equivalent UW–Madison campus courses—even when the Independent Learning course carries the same number and title. Use the Transfer Information System (TIS) to insure that the Independent Learning course is equivalent to the campus required course. Faculty and dean's offices may have some discretion in permitting courses to count for requirements even when they are not coded as exactly equivalent; students should see their EAS advisor.
Concurrent enrollment. UW–Extension is an entirely separate institution from UW–Madison. Thus, UW–Madison students must have permission from their academic dean to be enrolled concurrently in another higher education institution. Permission for concurrent enrollment is granted routinely for School of Education students through EAS. Students should go to the registrar's office website for the form. This form both indicates permission for concurrent enrollment and, in some circumstances, provides for waiver of the tuition for the Independent Learning course (see additional information below). Students should take this form to Education Academic Services, 139 Education Building, 1000 Bascom Mall, and meet with an advisor. This form must then be sent to Independent Learning after it has been approved at EAS.
Tuition waiver. The tuition for Independent Learning courses may be waived with dean's permission. Students are eligible for a tuition waiver if they register for an IL course during the semester they are concurrently enrolled at UW–Madison. In some cases, students may be allowed to register for IL classes once they have enrolled in courses for the subsequent semester, linking their IL registration with the credits for the succeeding semester. Students interested in receiving a tuition waiver must be enrolled full time (at least 12 credits) at UW–Madison, and have 18 credits or less after adding the Independent Learning course. Students should see their EAS advisor for additional information on these policies. As indicated above, download and complete the form and submit to EAS, 139 Education Building, 1000 Bascom Mall. This stamped form must then be sent to Independent Learning, with a copy remaining at EAS.
Posting Independent Learning courses to the UW–Madison transcript. IL courses are posted to the campus transcript by staff at Undergraduate Admissions. A transcript for an Independent Learning course must be officially submitted to this office.
Timing for course completion and degree posting. IL courses require a substantial time commitment. Students should not plan to begin an IL course only a few weeks before it must be completed! Perhaps even more important, students completing an IL course to meet degree requirements during their last semester on campus should be aware that the IL course must be completed prior to the University's official graduation date for that semester. The completion date listed on the UW–Extension transcript must be earlier than the UW–Madison graduation date or the student's degree will be awarded after the subsequent semester. For example, if a student's UW–Extension transcript indicates a course completion date of May 25, but the UW–Madison degree completion date is May 23, the student's degree will be posted for the subsequent August graduation date, not for the May graduation day. This could create serious problems for teacher education students hoping to secure a position. For this reason, students completing final degree requirements via Independent Learning should consult carefully with EAS and Independent Learning staff regarding the timing of their course completion and degree posting.
Last 60 Credits Rule
Two grade point averages will be calculated to determine candidates' eligibility to programs. GPAs will be calculated using (1) all transferable college level coursework attempted, and (2) the last 60 credits attempted. The higher GPA of these two will be used for purposes of determining eligibility. If fewer than 60 credits have been attempted, all credits will be used to calculate the GPA. Graded graduate coursework will also be used in all GPA calculations. ("Attempted" coursework indicates coursework for which a grade has been earned.)
The use of the last 60 credits does not supersede other eligibility requirements. For example, when a minimum GPA on prerequisite courses is required, or a minimum major GPA is required to be eligible for admission, all required courses will be used in calculating this GPA. This will include courses taken prior to the last 60 credits. A cumulative GPA, however, will still be calculated based on the last 60 college credits attempted.
Currently, retention and graduation GPAs are based on all credits attempted at UW–Madison as an undergraduate student. If each semester's GPA after admission to the program meets the required GPA for retention, the student will be allowed to continue and complete the program.
This policy does not apply to certification programs in Agriculture Education, Family and Consumer Science, and Music Education, in which the degree is granted from another school or college on campus.
Contact EAS for additional information regarding the interpretation of this policy.
Late Course Adds or Drops
Registration and Timetable regulations are in effect when adding and dropping courses. Students are responsible for knowing and complying with the published drop deadlines. See the registrar's website for deadlines. Students are expected to check their academic records routinely to minimize the need for late drops based on enrollment errors.
Late course add. Students must obtain instructor, departmental, and dean's approval to add a course after the course add deadline. See the registrar's website for instructions.
Late course drop. After the drop deadline, courses may be dropped only with the permission of Education Academic Services. Such permission is not granted routinely, but only in unusual circumstances. Students seeking a late drop will be required to complete a formal request form and may be asked to supply a written justification, medical or other documentation, and/or proof of having consulted with the course instructor. Requests for backdated drops due to ignorance of campus drop deadlines or to remove a "DR" from the student's record will not be honored. Students seeking a late drop must schedule a meeting with an EAS advisor.
The student will meet with the advisor to discuss the drop request. The advisor will collect information about the circumstances around the request. If appropriate, the advisor will warn about the drop's possible consequences for financial aid, insurance coverage, student status (for international students), etc. The decision around the late drop may or may not be made during this meeting. Advisors may confer with instructors as needed to verify students' reports and obtain additional information. Advisors may also require students to contact the instructor and may also consult with one another and with the associate dean about specific cases. Students will be informed via email or telephone about the disposition of their request.
Part-Time Enrollment Status
Students who choose part-time enrollment status or who anticipate falling below full-time enrollment status due to dropping a course should consult with an EAS advisor. Part-time enrollment may have important implications for health insurance coverage or financial aid. It is especially important that athletes and international students consult with EAS and other advisors before choosing part-time enrollment. Students who drop below 12 credits need not leave university housing.
Reentry to Campus after an Absence
Students wishing to reenter UW–Madison after an absence of a semester or more must file a reentry application form. This form is available from the UW–Madison Office of Admissions and Recruitment. If an applicant is not in good academic standing, the reentry application will be referred to the associate dean.
Students admitted to the professional part of a program may leave UW–Madison for a maximum of two consecutive semesters (excluding summer sessions) and be eligible to reenter directly into the program. Students in this situation are not guaranteed immediate placement in a practicum or student teaching placement upon reentry, and graduation may be delayed because of prior commitments to continuing students. Students who leave the program for more than two consecutive semesters (excluding summer sessions) may be considered for readmission only on an individual basis. Lack of space in a program may preclude readmission directly into a program for any future semester. Given the individual circumstances, a student may be required to reapply to the program altogether.
The general policy above may be modified by any particular program so that the conditions of reentry match the structure of the professional program. Some programs require that students obtain prior approval to interrupt the program sequence. All students intending to be absent should leave with a firm understanding of the conditions guiding their reentry into their professional program. Consult with the appropriate faculty advisor and with Education Academic Services.
Repeating Courses
Most courses on the UW–Madison campus may be taken only once for purposes of credit. Some courses may be repeated a limited number of times for credit. Other courses may be repeated an unlimited number of times for credit. When courses are taken more than once, all grades and their associated grade points are included in the cumulative campus grade point average.
Some School of Education professional programs may permit students to retake courses for admission eligibility purposes only. Students should consult EAS staff with questions regarding repeated courses.
Residency (Major and Senior) Requirements
Major Residency. Students must complete at UW–Madison at least 15 credits in upper-level courses in the major. Some programs, e.g. Art, require more credits to meet major residency requirements. Upper-level courses are generally defined as those numbered 300 and above. Retroactive credits and credits granted by examination do not count toward the residency requirement.dents must complete at UW–Madison at least 15 credits in upper-level courses in the major. Some programs, e.g. Art, require more credits to meet major residency requirements. Upper-level courses are generally defined as those numbered 300 and above. Retroactive credits and credits granted by examination do not count toward the residency requirement.
Senior Residency. Seniors in Education must take the last 30 credits in residence. Special permission to take a portion of senior work either at another institution or by correspondence (via UW–Extension) must be obtained in advance from Education Academic Services. Coursework taken as part of a UW–Madison sponsored study abroad program does not count against senior residency. Students should discuss senior residency issues with their EAS advisor. Retroactive credits and credits granted by examination do not count toward the residency requirement.
Satisfactory Progress/Excess Credits
Excess Credits. Effective Fall 2004, Wisconsin resident undergraduates who have accumulated more than 165 completed credits will be assessed a 100% tuition surcharge on credits over 165, as required by the UW System Board of Regents. See Excess Cumulative Credits on the registrar's website for more information about this policy and the criteria used in counting cumulative, completed credits. Note: Students who have already been awarded a Bachelor's degree from any accredited institution are exempt from the tuition surcharge. Special students are also exempt.
Satisfactory Progress. Second degree candidates and Education Special (non-degree-seeking) Students. The School of Education is enriched by admitting students with a previous degree to our professional programs. We welcome these students and encourage them to apply to our professional programs. At the same time, we recognize that admission as a second-degree or Education Special (designated EDS or EDCS) student is a privilege granted by the School of Education. Second-degree and Education Special students are expected to make the same timely progress toward program completion as are initial-degree students.
To ensure satisfactory progress, second-degree and Education Special students who are identified to have met any one of the criteria below will be required to confer with her/his program coordinator and the undergraduate academic dean for purposes of developing a formal plan for program completion:
- Student has earned over 200 total credits.
- Student enrolled for two consecutive semesters without completing requirements for the professional program to which the student was initially admitted.
- Student withdrew from classes for two consecutive semesters.
- Student failed to enroll in a required course when it was available, particularly those that are intermittently offered.
- Student engages in other course selection patterns that result in his/her failing to make progress toward completion of initial program.
Students who do not meet the terms of the plan for program completion may be restricted to enrollment in specific courses or departments, prevented from enrolling entirely, or withdrawn from classes by the academic undergraduate dean after consultation with program faculty. Students may appeal the terms of the plan or any of the dean's actions above under the provisions of the School of Education Grievance Policy.
Students with a Previous Degree
A prospective student who already holds an undergraduate degree is admitted to the School of Education as either an Education Special student or a Second Degree student, depending on the academic area of interest and the individual's previous coursework. The term "Special Student" indicates that the student has an interest in pursuing certification in a subject area studied during the initial degree; the student does not receive a second degree for this "certification only" coursework. Second undergraduate degree students are seeking a second degree from the School of Education in an area that is different from the major coursework of the first degree. This degree may, or may not, include teacher certification. Candidates for limited enrollment programs must meet all admission eligibility requirements for the program and must compete with the eligible applicants for program admission.
Special students. Applicants must file an undergraduate application with the Office of Admissions and Recruitment. Education Special students not yet admitted to a professional program are given an EDS classification, are not eligible for financial aid, and enroll last with the other special students on campus. Candidates seeking Special student status in open enrollment programs must obtain written permission for admission from the relevant program coordinator and must submit a professional program application to Education Academic Services. Candidates seeking admission to a limited enrollment program must meet all admission eligibility requirements for the program and must compete with other eligible candidates for program admission. Applicants admitted to a certification professional program become Education Certification Special students (EDCS classification) to distinguish them from Special students not so admitted. Students with an EDCS classification may be eligible for financial aid. Continuing EDCS students may register with undergraduates having junior status.
Second degree candidates. Students who wish to earn a second baccalaureate degree in the School of Education must file an undergraduate application with the Office of Admissions and Recruitment and must file a professional program application with Education Academic Services. Second degree students not yet admitted to a professional program are given a pre-professional classification. Second degree candidates must:
- be seeking a new major that is substantially different from their previous degree work;
- complete at least 15 upper-level credits in the new major;
- complete at least 30 credits beyond their previous coursework.
The determination of whether a student should be admitted as a second degree candidate or Education Special student is made by the faculty advisor in consultation with EAS staff after analyzing the student's remaining requirements. The faculty advisor will determine the specific remaining requirements for students admitted to a program. In addition to completing the requirements specific to the program(s) of interest, returning students must also complete any relevant campuswide requirements, complete the requirements specific to individual program areas such as the Environmental Education, Multicultural and Human Relations, and Cooperatives requirements, and satisfy any high school deficiencies identified at the time of admission to UW–Madison. Students are strongly encouraged to discuss their academic plans with their faculty advisor and must make satisfactory progress toward program completion - see Satisfactory Progress/Excess credits for details.
Withdrawing from UW–Madison
Formal withdrawal procedures must be observed by individuals who wish to leave the university before completing the semester in progress. Students who leave the university without formally withdrawing may receive failing grades in all courses.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Windham called our home phone several time a day with threats. We told the agent a "Troy Lemke" not sure about spelling of last name.
We explained to Troy that it was our son that had used the student loan and our son was currently serving in Iraq with the U.S. Marines. Troy said that he didnt care and wanted the money paid now. We explained to Troy that we were not in a position to pay because I had a serious spine injury and could not work and the money my wife made was only enough to buy food and pay the basic bills.
We told Troy that we desired a hearing so we could explain our situation to a judge. We also told Troy that since our son was active duty and serving in a war zone that he was exempt for now. Troy went on to say how he loved going after service men and women and they were all dead beats.
Troy insisted that we did not want to pay but we kept telling him that we did want to pay but just couldnt. Again we asked for a hearing. Troy called us dead beats and then hung up.
Two months later the wage garnishment started and we never got our hearing. Windham should be held accountable for their underhanded and deceptive collection practices. They work for the government and they should be fired for the way they do business. Troy said that " if your son is killed you can use his insurance money to pay off the loan" That was enough for me, I was dealing with a monster and I had heard enough.
We will have a hearing and all this will come out and I will see that Troy is left with no job. He called our son a dead beat while serving in Iraq and risking his life for Troy. Shame on you young man. I hope you get a chance to meet my son when he gets home.

Well Happy Valentines Day, Radiohead fans. The notorious king of short lead-time has announced the release of its eighth studio album, The King Of Limbs for February 19 on its own imprint Ticker Tape. February 19. That's this weekend. As in Saturday.
Like In Rainbows, this Nigel Godrich-produced album will be available online at radiohead.com (pick your poison: mp3 or .wav); but unlike In Rainbows you'll have to pony up for this record. There will also be a pre-order for a limited edition deluxe edition on clear 10-inch vinyl and other goodies.
The not-so-special version of The King Of Limbs will be in stores on March 28.

Kevin Garnett was called for an offensive foul with 10 seconds left and the Celtics down three points, which didn't sit well with coach Doc Rivers.
"I wasn't fond of it. At all," Rivers said. "You know, I think Kevin got called for three off-the-ball offensive fouls. So clearly it looked like they were looking for it all night and they got three of them. If you're going to tell me Kevin was the only one moving in picks tonight, then I'll live with that. He clearly was not the only one, but he was the one who got the calls tonight."
Garnett was actually called for two offensive fouls and one defensive foul away from the ball, but he did say after the game that referee Danny Crawford warned him about the screens he was setting.
"Mike [Smith] was in the position and he called it. I'm not going to make a big stink about it," Garnett said. "I think Danny had already given me a warning about how I was setting the picks. I'm going to continue to set picks. I'm going to continue to get guys open. That wasn't, to me, the game. Mike made a great call. I don't really give it up to the refs, but he thought that was a moving pick. I just thought in that situation you let the players decide the game. He felt like it was an illegal pick and that's what it is."
The Sixers went on to win Game 2, 82-81 to even their best-of-seven series at a game apiece.
"We put ourselves in that position," Rivers said. "I say it all the time if you put yourself in a position to let someone else do something, then you can lose games and that's what happened."

(ROSWELL, N.M.) — It seems appropriate that Roswell, ground zero for UFO hunters, is hosting the mission to the edge of space because the sight of daredevil Felix Baumgartner diving back to Earth from 90 thousand feet will certainly spark new UFO conspiracy theories.
Baumgartner will go from zero to perhaps 509 mph in 30 seconds when he jumps from his space capsule. An attempt was scrubbed Tuesday morning because of high winds; another try could be made Wednesday.
He hit 365 mph when he jumped from 71,000 feet in March — and he is expected to go supersonic in August when he dives from 120 thousand feet. That's zero to 690 mph in 25 seconds — a human body breaking the sound barrier without an airplane. Most people go to the edge of space or beyond in a rocket. Baumgartner is going up in a capsule carried aloft by a huge helium balloon.
"The pressure is huge, and we not only have to endure but excel," he said. "We're excellently prepared, but it's never going to be a fun day, I'm risking my life, after all."
Red Bull is financing this daredevil skydive from space. The mission is named Stratos. Five years of planning by a team of experts, many volunteering their services, went into the jump, which is set to break several records in one breathtaking plunge back to Earth, including:
This daredevil dive from near space is not a first. The Austrian Baumgartner will be breaking a 52-year-old record if he succeeds, and he wisely recruited the man who set the record, the legendary Air Force Col. Joe Kittinger, for advice.
On Aug. 16, 1960, Kittinger jumped from a balloon at an altitude of 102,900 feet — and fell for almost five minutes before opening a parachute to slow his descent at 18,000 feet. He made history for the highest balloon ascent, the highest parachute jump, and the fastest speed by a human being through the atmosphere.
"Somebody will beat them someday, but when they do it, they'll be doing it to beat a record," Kittinger said in a 2008 interview with ABC's Jonathan Karl. "We didn't make those records at the time just for that purpose"
He now says he is happy to cede his record to Baumgartner — but joked, "I told him if he changes his mind, I am ready to take over for him."
Weather is critical because the massive balloon is fragile and tears easily; it can't launch with winds in excess of 4 mph or under heavy cloud cover.

Ryan Poli, etc., will open Little Market Brasserie this winter
Ryan Poli to open Little Market Brasserie in the Talbott Hotel
Mon Oct 15 2012
Things to know about Little Market Brasserie, which we now know officially that Ryan Poli will be running:
- It's an American brasserie, and it will be in the Talbott Hotel space that has been operated for a few months as PT. (PT didn't get very good reviews from our critic, but Little Market will be a different concept entirely.)
- Just like Tavernita, this is a Mercadito Hospitality concept, and the Tippling Brothers are partners.
- They will be a 125-seat patio.
- The dining room will supposedly look like a Parisian bistro, but, again, this is not a French spot—it's an American/eclectic one.
- Sample dish: "New York strip steak with short rib-cognac poutine and cheese curds—Little Market's version of steak frites."
- The cocktail program will revolve around housemade sodas such as Meyer lemon sour, blood orange cinnamon and smoked salted cream soda.
- Moderately priced; will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner; opening in early winter.

Charts and Diagrams – Windows – Purchase
FamilyTreeFactory 184.108.40.206 has been released.
• Fixed bug: In the not licensed demo version a Range ckeck error could occur when printing about several pages. The bug does not appear any more.
• For a better distinction of different program editions the additions Premium and Basic are used. The Premium edition has the full scope of features. The Basic edition, which may be offered by PC magazines for example, has only a restricted scope of features. The installed edition is mentioned in the title bar of the main window, for example FamilyTreeFactory 6 Premium. In addition it is found if you call the Program Info function in the Help/Info menu.
• In the Treeview Options dialog, Graphic Content tab, a slider Contrast for changing the contrast of the background image has been added.
• In the Personal Data dialog, Personal Data tab, the entry field Religion has been changed to a dropdown list. This list offers, by analogy with those for surname and maiden name, all religion data already occurring. With that an uniform notation is made easier in all records.
• The integrity check now is reporting any date which is in the future. At the comparison of a date with the watch of the computer, one day is granted as a waiting period to avoid problems with different time zones: For example at night at 2 o'clock Australian time an Australian could send a family file to Europe, where the date of the day before is still valid.
• Now automatic program updates from the Internet can only be called by licensed programs. Users, who wants to test the program for a long period without a license, can check on the Internet whether there is a newer version available. If any, the new setup can be installed directly over a previously installed older version.
• Some small improvements and corrections.

Direct Gardening false advertising on their guarantee Bloomington Illinois
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Directgardening.com is not the place you want to shop at for a good buying experience. They have a guarantee promise that is very mis-leading.
Last year I ordered some hazelnut trees from them. I knew they were dead when I received them, but I planted them anyways. A couple of months later when no foliage at all appeared, I followed there guarantee process that said to send a letter with the original shipping label. Eventually they sent me replacements no charge but they were dead on arrival as well. I planted them anyways. A couple of months later I followed their guarantee policy again. That was a month ago.
When I called them today they said that the guarantee ran out because it was over a year since the original order. I tried to reason with the customer service represenative but to no avail. I asked her how you could consider the guarantee period over when you sent me dead trees to begin with. She said that just because they shipped me dead trees that did not extend the guarantee period.
This is ridiculous. They make you wait 10 weeks before you can request replacements. I have planted a lot of things in my lifetime and I know when something is dead before I put it in the ground. A simple scratch test is sufficient.
This is just a heads up to anybody else out there that wants to order some from these people online.
Find some place that has a better reputation......

Cable pattern:Row 1: P1, sl 2 on spare pin, K2, K2 from spare needle, P1Row 2: K1, P4, K1Row 3: P1, K4, P1Row 4: As Row 1
With Right Side facing patt 6 sts, K2tog, K2, cast off 8 sts, K to end of row.
Next row: Cast off 2 sts (armhole edge) P11 sts, P8 sts from spare pin (pocket lining) over cast off sts, P3, K1, P4, K1. <<This is where I've stopped, with 28 sts.
Now K all in SS except the 6 cable sts at neck edge. K2tog inside of cable sts every 4th row 6 times and at same time K2tog armhole edge every other row twice (20 sts).
So where I'm stopped at, I've got two rows until I have to cable again. Is that the first row the k2tog inside the cable is at? And with the k2tog, would I still k1 to fit the cable pattern? I've tried thinking this over, but I'm stumped.
Hi and welcome to Knitting Help!OK, it seems to me that you've stopped after finishing a WS row. You would have 2 more rows and the row after that would be the cable cross row, a RS row. Yes, that would be the row to do the next k2tog. Continue with the k2tog every 4th row which will be easy to remember because it the same row as the cable cross.I'm not sure which k1 you mean but you don't want to use any of the 6sts that make up the cable for the k2tog.
I think the cable pattern should be:Row 1: P1, sl 2 on spare pin, K2, K2 from spare needle, P1Row 2: K1, P4, K1Row 3: P1, K4, P1Row 4: As Row 2
Thank you for the welcome!
You're right about that last row in the cable pattern. That was a typo on my part. I'm still confused about the k2tog, because it says "inside of cable sts."
The neck is to end up shaped like in the photo. I may just end up putting a safety line in to continue and frog it if it doesn't come out.
When the pattern says "inside of cable: it doesn't mean within the 6st cable itself. It means between the cable and the armhole edge. You can see in the photo that the cable remains intact but the neck edge slants due to the decreases which are next to the cable.Yes, a lifeline is a great idea.The sweater looks lovely. See how it goes and if it's still not right, come back and let us know.

One of the reasons for not notifying you when the trap works is so as not to acknowledge to spammers that we exist. It seems to have helped keep spam off the list these last ten years--watch all the spam we are now going to receive!! The attachments issue is related to the fact that we are running on Unix using the blandest mail system we can think of so as to reach the maximum number of people. m.p. Nick Cox wrote:

Lindsay Lohan Crashes 'J. Edgar' Afterparty, Makes Everyone "Uncomfortable"
J. Edgar opened the AFI Film Festival at Grauman's Chinese Theater November 3rd with a bang, drumming up Oscar buzz for Leonardo DiCaprio,who plays infamous FBI director J. Edgar Hoover.
PHOTOS: Stars Attend The Premiere Of J. Edgar
The afterparty, held at the nearby Hollywood Roosevelt, drew some of the industry's top dogs, including Clint Eastwood (who directed the film), Ron Howard, Harvey Weinstein, and Christie Cashman. The New York Post reports that Lindsay Lohan, fresh from her Playboy shoot (makeup and all), managed to argue her way into the invite-only party by fighting with security guards.
A source at the party told the Post, "Lindsay was arguing with the security to let her in, dropping every celebrity's name to get in. She could be heard saying, 'I have to go and see Leo.' Eventually they let her in, but she made everybody uncomfortable. She was aggressive and random, storming around. She tried to get to Leo, but he was surrounded by his security and a posse of his friends."
Rather than blending in with the crowd after making a total scene, Lohan took her crazy train even further. "Clint and Leo and Dustin Lance Black were talking," the source said. "And Lindsay sent one of her aides over, demanding to get a photo with them, but security shooed them away." Listen, sister's going to jail next Wednesday. She's going to need a framed photo of Jack Dawson to tape to her cell block.
46 Photos Of Lindsay Lohan's Red Carpet Looks
Oooooofffffff course, Lohan's rep denied the story, giving the following statement to the Post: "She did not crash, she was invited by a guest who attended the event. I am not aware of her asking for photos with Leo or Clint. She was never asked to leave."

Sydney coach John Longmire has warned his players not to take Brisbane lightly despite sitting 10 spots higher than the Lions on the ladder.
Brisbane have won three of their past four matches including a two-point victory over third-placed West Coast in Round 10.
With the Lions having only lost to Hawthorn in the past month, Longmire is wary of Michael Voss' side as the Swans prepare for Saturday's game at the SCG.
"Their form is as solid as anyone going around in the competition over the last month," Longmire said.
"You know, they're playing really good footy."
While Simon Black continues to impress for the Lions - the veteran midfielder has won the most contested possessions of any Brisbane player over the past fortnight - Longmire believes they are about more than one player.
"Look at Rockliff, Redden and those fellas that are playing in the midfield now, playing big roles," Longmire said.
"Black's still an important part but he's not the only part of their midfield."
Speaking to the media on Monday, Longmire commended Shane Mumford and Adam Goodes for their form after coming back from injury.
Ruckman Mumford impressed his coach with his hard work when the ball hit the ground.
"We were looking at Shane's game again on the tape and he played better than what I thought he did after the game," Longmire said.
"So he's certainly getting better every week now."
After subbing Goodes off against Geelong in Round 13, Longmire believed the Sydney forward looked much better against the Giants.
"To kick a couple of goals...the longer the game went, the better he (Goodes) felt and after the game he felt terrific and certainly today he's a lot better than he was last week," Longmire said.
Longmire expects Daniel Hannebery, who rolled his ankle against GWS, to be fit against the Lions.
Sydney's coach claimed the 21-year-old was the main injury concern from Saturday night's game against the Giants.

Actor Michael Douglas is a smart man. He passed on reprising his role from 1992's "Basic Instinct."Actress Sharon Stone is not so smart. She didn't.
As a result, she's back as bad girl Catherine Tramell, 14 years older and no wiser in "Basic Instinct 2." Moving the venue from sun-soaked California to gloomy old England, "BI 2" has the alleged serial killing authoress facing trial as the one responsible for the death of a drugged out football star, with whom she was driving at 110 mph when her sports car took a plunge into the Thames River.
"Did you try to free him from the sinking car?" asks Detective Roy Washburn (David Thewlis).
"Yes, a little," answers Catherine. She explains that her main concern was freeing herself.
"I guess I'm selfish," she shrugs with the attitude that once won Stone stardom. The actress is looking good and in top form playing her signature role as the amoral, now aging sexpot. But she needs a strong leading man to reduce to mush by the movie's end. This is where Douglas came to the fore for the first film's battle of the sexes.
Her "BI 2" target is Dr. Michael Glass, a psychiatrist played by David Morrissey. The English court has assigned him to determine her sanity. He declares that she suffers from "risk addiction" (the original title of the sequel) and that she's a danger to herself and others in her search for greater and greater thrills.
After the court clears her, Catherine willfully becomes David's patient, so she can play mind and body games with him and others associated with him. That includes his ex-wife, Denise (Indira Varma), and her boyfriend, journalist Adam Tower (Hugh Dancy), who is out to trash him in the tabloids.
As the bodies pile up, David grows more and more confused and irate (along with the audience) until the tables totally turn against him. Of course, it all winds up as material for Catherine's new sex/crime novel, appropriately titled, "The Analyst."
Under the direction of Michael Caton-Jones, "BI 2" is grungy dirty, but not shocking sexy the way director Paul Verhoeven did it in "BI." In fact, there really isn't much sex in the sequel at all, and certainly not much involving Stone.
It's been said that "BI 2", which opened at the number 10 spot on the box office list, may become a camp classic like 1995's "Showgirls" (also directed by Verhoeven). However, "BI 2" is not over-top-enough to win that "so-bad-it's good" distinction.
The only way "BI 2" will be remembered is that it features the role that made and broke Sharon Stone. It also reveals that Michael Douglas has good instincts.

LSU baseball season ends in blowout, 12-2 to Houston
BATON ROUGE - The LSU Tiger baseball team saw their season come to a close at the hands of the Houston Cougars who blew open the NCAA Regional final game with a seven run third inning.
LSU fell 12-2 to Houston after failing to score another run following the first inning. The Tigers second loss to the Cougars in as many days ended their season with a 46-15-1 record and stops their attempts at back to back trips to the College World Series.
Houston unleashed 7 runs in the bottom of the 3rd inning, and broke a tied game wide open in the bottom of the third to make the score 9-2 - it's remained that way into the 8th inning when the Cougars added three more runs.
The Tigers went through three pitchers in the 3rd inning, as Parker Bugg was replaced by Brady Domangue, who was replaced by Nate Fury, who finished off the third with a strikeout. In between, the Cougars got runs off a HPB, a two run single from Connor Hollis, an RBI single from Ashford Fulmer, a two run single by Michael Pyeatt and a sac fly for the 9th run.
In the first inning, Alden Cartwright was pulled from the game before he could get an out, and Houston scored 2 runs in the bottom of the first to tie the Baton Rouge regional at 2 as the game moved to the second inning.
Cartwright hit the first batter then walked the next two to load the bases. Parker Bugg came on in relief and the Cougars scored on a sac fly to center followed by a sac bunt. Bugg ended the bottom of the first with a strikeout.
The game is a winner-take-all contest between the Tigers and Cougars, after Houston came back against LSU to win 5-4 in 11 innings.
Also in the starting lineup is freshman Jake Fraley, who will man left field.
In the first inning: Sean McMullen grounded a single through the right side of the infield to score Alex Bregman and Jake Fraley to draw the first score of the game.

MANLY coach Geoff Toovey is disappointed that information he received a letter from the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) was leaked.
ASADA have requested to speak to Toovey as part of their probe into the use of prohibited substances.
Central to the investigation is sports scientist Stephen Dank, who was employed by Manly and Cronulla.
Toovey said he has no problem with the request and said there is nothing to hide.
"I'm a little bit disappointed that the information got out there so quick," Toovey said.
"I received a letter and people were ringing me half an hour later.
How we broke the story: ASADA approaches Manly coaching staff
"That's disappointing but there's a process and we'll follow it through and see some results from it.
"There's definitely nothing to hide here at Manly, we've already been cleared of that.
"They're doing a thorough investigation so I have no problems with the whole thing. We'll move on and go about our business."
Toovey said he felt sympathy for the Sharks players who are trying to prepare for games while having daily meetings with lawyers.
But he said the situation could also galvanise the team.
"Obviously it's been a tough time for Cronulla but in adversity football teams seem to rise above that and I'm sure Cronulla will do the same thing."
