Here we go again, round two of hurricane stress.  Once again, I hope this finds everyone well and their life returning to normal.  We will continue to adjust to whatever changes lie before us and do the best we can at all time.  As of now, the six week period is not being extended and the five missed days will be forgiven.  This is not an absolute, it is all I know right now.  With that being said, the end of the first six week period is Thursday, September 18th.  Due the best you can calculating grades and if corrections or changes need to occur, you will be allowed to do so during the second six week period.  If have no update on the status of Integrade Pro except that several requests have been made to use it.
