2. Preparation of Final Examinations

a.    Final course assessments should be designed to enable a student to demonstrate a grasp of the subject of the course and thus should be based upon large parts of the syllabus rather than a restricted topic or special section.

b.    In a course taught by several instructors, responsibility for the final assessments rests with the individual in charge who should, in turn, consult with her or his colleagues in the course.

c.     It is the obligation of those concerned with preparing an examination or other final assessments to ensure that copies of it do not fall into unauthorized hands in advance of the examination.
