Either they haven’t received their blueprints yet or at best they received them after they registered. For some students this meant that their first inkling of whether or not they passed a course came at registration tables when they were Informed whether or not they would be allowed to go on. This, of course, is only in the case of cumulative courses. Aside from the cruelty involved to persons who are kept in doubt as long as possible as to whether or not they can remain in school, the inefficiency of the lystem as it is presently constituted is obvious. Persons who must know their grades before the blueprints come out are kept in doubt as to what to do by the confusion which reigns among the faculty In ibis matter. Some professors post grades, others do not, but will give them orally if approached. Still others will send out grades if the student encloses a self-addressed post card in his exam book. Finally, there are some who will give out grades on any premise. The resulting confusion is a fearsome thing to behold. Our suggestion to alleviate an entirely uncalled for situation is as follows. Let each student, when he pays his student health fee, add in another dime which can be put into a separate fund called a “Grade Fund.’’ The money from this fund could be used to purchase post cards in bulk, so that they could be distributed with each examination, addressed by the student and turned into the instructors to be sent out with grades as soon as they are ready. Obviously with postcards one cent each, and most students only taking six subjects, there would be an excess in the fund. This could be split among the instructors as a recompense for the added work. At a rate of four or five cents excess per student, spilt pro r a ta among the instructors on the basis of how many cards they each had to handle, the total for any instructor should fall between five and ten dollars. This certainly should be remuneration enough for putting letters on the backs of post cards. Such a system is something which both the students and the faculty should approve of and benefit by, and we hope for, early adm inistrative action on this problem, so that next year will see the removal of this long-standing situation.
