Extra Credit Opportunities! Receive extra credit throughout the semester by attending any speech related to Public Policy. You may receive up to 3 points per event that you attend: 5 total events x 3 points per event = 15 possible points *These 15 points can make the difference between an A- or a B+

How extra credit works! After the event, fill out the Extra Credit Speaker Evaluation Form located under the Extra Credit tab on the PAF website: https://paf101.expressions.syr.edu/extra-credit/ After you complete the online form within 48 hours, Molly will send you an email letting you know that she received it and the total amount of points you have received. If you do not receive an email within 48 hours, please contact Molly at mfakers@syr.edu to ensure that you get points!
