Your average grade is shown in the “final scores” file as usual. The grading rubric for the final grades is given below. First find your grade from the rubric based on your average grade,… THEN add any extra credit that you may have to boost your grade. EC was given as 1% for attending a lecture and 0.5% for correctly answering #22 on exam 2 which was originally omitted from the scoring.
As an example, a score of 69% would give a grade of B+, if the student has at least 1% extra credit, that would boost the final grade to an A-

Discovering the Big Bang
Thursday, Nov. 15, 2007
7:00 pm
Campus Center Ballroom
UH Manoa
P. J. E.(Jim) Peebles and Robert Dicke predicted that the birth of the universe would leave a residue, a faint glow of radio emission from the hot Big Bang. When this was confirmed in the early 1960s, cosmology was transformed from philosophy to science. Later, as evidence grew for the existence of dark matter, Peebles led the debate over where it is and how much of it there is. Thanks in large part to Peebles, we now understand that dark matter played a crucial role in the development of structure in the universe, and hence a crucial role in creating the conditions for life. Under Peebles' guidance for over four decades, cosmologists have developed a complex and increasingly compelling picture of the physical origins of the universe.
P. J. E. Peebles is the Albert Einstein Professor of Science Emeritus at Princeton University and has won many major prizes for his contributions to physics, including the Crafoord Prize and the prestigious Shaw Prize in Astronomy.
