Some CUE members disagreed about which statistical measures of a course's average grade would be appropriate for the transcript.

The committee also discussed the use of increased publicity to counteract inflation, but decided that using the media would do little to solve the problem.

Justin C. Label '97, an Undergraduate Council executive who sits on the CUE, said he was pleased with the committee's decision to include the departments in the discussion.

"I think it's very important for the faculty to discuss this," he said. "The impression I got today was that there wasn't enough dialogue on these actions."

The council's student affairs committee also discussed the issue of grade inflation at its weekly meeting on Monday. Members "resoundingly" declared grade inflation was not a problem, said Label, who chairs that committee.

Still, Label said that "the Student Affairs committee [would be] willing to further consider the plan to add the 13, 9 and 5 as possible grades."
