Notice to Instructors

Your attention is called to a rule of the University requiring that examinations be held
for all students during the last days of the semester.

To avoid confusion, the examination schedule and the accompanying regulations should
be followed strictly by all concerned, except that any necessary departures from the reg-
ular schedule and regulations may be made only for good reasons and after advance written
request by the instructor and approval by the Examinations Committee, Professor M. E. Rice,
Chairman.

Regular classes with laboratory work only will be examined as other classes except that
the hour may be any one of the several hours scheduled in the laboratory period, the choice
to be made by the instructor after consultation with the students and with other instructors
concerned.

Irregular appointment classes and appointment laboratory classes will be examined at
the time to be set by the instructor after consultation with the students and with any other
instructors concerned. In case this option is insufficient to avoid conflicts, the instructors
concerned will submit in advance for approval by the Examinations Committee a written
substitute schedule of examination hours for the conflicting courses.

In case of mixed courses in which the laboratory work dces not come at the same hour
as the class work, the examination may be scheduled in either of the following ways: (1) a
single examination covering both the class and the laboratory work at the time scheduled
for the class hours; (2) two examinations, one for the class work at the time scheduled for
the i hours and one for the laboratory work at the time scheduled for the laboratory
periods

When a three-hour course is scheduled on Tuesday and Thursday at one hour and on an-
other day at the same or a different hour, the examination should be given as for a two-hour
course at the Tuesday and Thursday hour, but the examination may use 3 hours except on
the last day of the examination schedule. Likewise, when a two-hour course is scheduled
on M, W, F, or on any two of these days, the examination should be given as for a three-
hour course on the M, W, F, hour, but the examination may use only 2 hours.

The School of Law is authorized to make its own examination schedule provided that it
take care of all non-law students without causing them conflicts with their other examina-
tions.

The School of Medicine (this does not include pre-medical courses) is authorized to make
its own examination schedule provided that it take care of all non-medical students without
causing them conflicts with their other examinations.

Entrance Examinations may be taken from June 1 to June 8 inclusive. Persons wishing
to take such examinations should arrange with Professor M. E. Rice, 202 Blake Hall, on or
before May 29 for definite appointments.

E. H. LINDLEY, Chancellor.

Grades—The Senate regulations regarding grades are as follows: A, B, C, and D shall be employed ta
indicate the four passing grades. A... shall be 'reserved for work of marked excellence, indicating high
honor. B... shall represent very good work of much more than average quality. C... shall indicate that
the work has been of good average character, better than that which deserves merely to pass. D.. . shall
represent work, the lowest in quality that would enable a student to pursue, without undue lack of material
or of method, the next dependent course, whether this latter be in the same department or in a related de-
partment. In case the course in question is not used as a prerequisite for others, a standard equivalent to
this should be specified.

I and F shall be employed to indicate incomplete work and failure. I ... shall indicate incomplete
work, such as may be completed without repetition of the regular work of the coursd. F .. . shall indicate
that the regular work of the course must be repeated. An incomplete is not to be given when any other
grade can be used, and further, an incomplete shall not be given except when for good reason, some part of
the work has not been completed.
