			:: Note that for a couple of years this section was optional. However, the PNB Graduate Studies Committee received enough feedback from committee members who want to see this section that it was made mandatory again. This year, under the uncertainty of COVID-19, this section may be even more important to your committee. You might not know what next year will look like from here, so don't worry about having a plan fully worked out. This year especially it is a useful exercise to consider what you might do next year. You will not be evaluated negatively for not having a plan. Use this space to talk a little about how your plans might change and how the uncertainty affects you.

	The progress report provides an opportunity for committee members to evaluate and contribute to the research progress made by students. Progress reports are marked by each member of the student’s supervisory committee as being ‘satisfactory’, ‘borderline’, or ‘unsatisfactory’, in each of three areas: (1) content, (2) presentation, and (3) progress toward the degree. These evaluations are internal to PNB, they are not shared with the School of Graduate Studies (SGS). The scores will be reviewed by ~~faculty,~~ the PNB Graduate Studies Committee (GSC), and the Graduate Chair in June. Graduate students will receive their scores in July.
