Unless you have heard from me telling you otherwise, the grades on Blackboard reflect your final grade for this course. I will submit these grades to CUNYfirst on Tuesday.
If for some reason (visa, employment, scholarship, etc.) you absolutely require a formal acknowledgement of your grade before Tuesday, please let me know. Otherwise, I hope Blackboard satisfies your curiosity sufficiently.
