Abstract
Grading outcomes can vary significantly within a University, yet GPAs do not recognise this variation. This creates unfairness. We report on an initiative developed at Bucknell University, and recently adopted at the University of Queensland, to provide students with a summary statistic which speaks to the cumulative grading outcomes encountered by the student.
