Faculty Services

Exams

Digital

All exams submitted to the library via CSL Faculty Services are made available through the library's electronic reserves database. The exams are password-protected; students must enter their CUA user name and password to gain access.

Print Exams

Print copies of all exams submitted to the library via CSL Faculty Services are bound in volumes by semester and year. The bound exams are located in closed compact shelving on Floor 4. Only library staff have access to the bound exam volumes.

Graded Exams

The Law Library and the Office of Academic Affairs have implemented a virtual exam review facility which allows students to temporarily (up to 48hrs) review their own exam submission, the exam questions, and any other supplementary or explanatory material made available by the relevant faculty member (e.g., a model answer). While students are able to view the materials, the ability to download, print and share has been disabled in the Google Drive used for this system. Students may view comments on their graded exams, provided that those comments have been made digitally. See the link below for more information.
