UT Tyler recorded its largest percentage of students completing instructor evaluations, Dr. William Geiger, vice provost for academic affairs, announced.

“For fall 2012, we had 71.4 percent of our students completing the evaluations, which is a record,” Geiger said.

Students who completed evaluations before Dec. 10, 2012 were granted “priority access” to view their semester grades one week earlier than non-respondents.

The university also held a drawing for three mini iPads. Winning students are Julie Brewer, Nyssa Ngu and Kandice Updegrove.

UT Tyler will hold another drawing for mini iPads at the end of the spring 2013 semester.
