A take-home test has been ruled out because many students have already left town. Students whose schedules conflict with the official Feb. 3 date will be individually accommodated by the Registrar.
Mitten said the revised exam will minimize or completely forego the use of slides. Instead, it will be mostly essay-based and will not test memorization as much as the original exam did.
Students will receive a more detailed e-mail message about the format of the test, just as they received for the first.
In the meantime, Mitten and Buboltz said their main concern is students' mental well-being.
"Some are really bothered by it and will never be completely the same," Buboltz said.
She said she encourages students affected by the threat to seek counseling.
No matter the outcome, though, students and teaching fellows said they appreciate Mitten's understanding.
"He's doing the lion's share," Buboltz said.
