[Faculty] Students declaring sick for class attendance and exams

[Satish Sharma]

All or who can answer,

How we ask our graders and ourselves to grade hardcopy of the
assignments/quizzes/Mid-Term Exams when assignments/quizzes/mid-term/final
exam which can become a medium of transmission? More importantly, how to
conduct quizzes, mid-term and final examinations if online/virtual way of
teaching? Is there a guideline about it so can be communicated to our
students in such an event or especially after Spring break as President's
email instructs? Everything cannot be done online or virtual or it may not
be practical for all our courses.

Thank you
