MIS 3534 – Thank you!
Dear all,
I have competed grading of Executive Report #3 and entered the final grades to Blackboard and TUPortal. You should be able to check yours now at Blackboard and tomorrow (12/16) at TUPortal.
Please be advised that the final grades are firm and final, and I will not respond to any request for a higher grade and extra credits.
I would like to sincerely thank you for your hard work and contribution to this class so far. I very much appreciate it. I also wish the best of luck in your continued studies, career, and future endeavors.
As I said in the classroom, if you’d like to keep in touch with me, you can connect with me via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/minspang.
Once again, thank you, and have warm and pleasant holidays!
