... so you can do your best.


Resources to Support Student Success

UBC provides resources to support student learning and to maintain healthy lifestyles, but recognizes that sometimes crises arise and so there are additional resources to access, including those for survivors of sexual violence. UBC values respect for the person and ideas of all members of the academic community. Harassment and discrimination are not tolerated, nor is suppression of academic freedom. UBC provides appropriate accommodation for students with disabilities and for religious observances. UBC values academic honesty, and students are expected to acknowledge the ideas generated by others, and to uphold the highest academic standards in all of their actions. Details of the policies and how to access support are available on the UBC Senate website.

Your grade in this course is not a measure of your value as a human being.  It is just a speed-bump in the road of life. 

Don't stress.  The UBC Exam Schedule webpage has tips on how to do your best on exams.
