Grading Guidelines. PCC uses the traditional graded system of A, B, C, D, and F. In addition Degree or certificate requirements may designate certain courses as pass/no pass only, and Continuing Education uses marks such as SC and NSC. A student may repeat a course for a higher grade under certain conditions. If a student feels they received the wrong grade, they should follow the instructions in Grade Disputes. Read the Academic Standards and Practices Handbook: Grading Guidelines for the complete grading policy and Grade Definitions.
Tegument /ËtÉÉ¡jÉmÉnt/ is a terminology in helminthology for the name of the outer body covering among members of the phylum Platyhelminthes. The name is derived from a Latin word tegumentum or tegere, meaning to cover.
The Latin verb scandere means to climb, so transcend has the basic meaning of climbing so high that you cross some boundary. A transcendent experience is one that takes you out of yourself and convinces you of a larger life or existence; in this sense, it means something close to spiritual. The American writers and thinkers known as the Transcendentalists, including Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, believed in the unity of all creation, the basic goodness of humankind, and the superiority of spiritual vision over mere logic.
