Second Annual Honors Edition
Honor Rolls Of Seven Schools List 796 In Fall
During the fall semester 796 University of Kansas students earned grades that entitled them to places on the Honor Rolls of seven schools in the University.
The Graduate School and Schools of Law and of Medicine do not compile Honor Rolls. Superior law students are honored through service on the Law Review. Medical students have a different grading system, while well-above-average achievement is required of all graduate students.
The faculty of each school in the University sets the standards for the Honor Roll of that school. Some list exactly the upper ten per cent as determined by grade-point averages. Others set a minimum grade-point average which may be met by more or by fewer than ten per cent in any single semester. And others set progressive grade-point average requirements for the classes within the school.
The earning of a place on the Dean's Honor Roll is an achievement in which the student, his parents and friends may take pride.

This is the second annual Honors edition of the University Daily Kansan. It represents a new way of recognizing the University's outstanding students.
It is hoped that the greater distribution of this special issue of The Daily Kansan will give K.U.'s scholars greater and wider recognition than ever before possible.
Additional copies of this section may be obtained without charge from the Public Relations Office, 222 Strong.
Many Hold Awards
The award of more than 1,250 graduate and undergraduate scholarships and fellowships for the current school year is recorded below, and the list is still not complete.
Often more than one award is made to the same student, but the number of individuals involved is approximately one thousand.
A rough estimate places the value of these awards in the neighborhood of $550,000 to $600,000.
All are academic scholarships, the award having been made solely on merit. While standards for the awards vary, the appointment in every instance denotes merit well above the average.
In amount the awards vary. In a few instances the scholarship brings only honor to the holder. The scale then runs up to full support for the scholar or fellow.
The University of Kansas policy, particularly at the undergraduate level, is that the scholarship be first conferred only for merit; and then, insofar as resources permit, the amount be adjusted to the scholar's need.
Most of the awards are made from funds administered principally by the University and the K.U. Endowment Association. However, some scholars listed hold their grants directly from other sources and are here because K.U. is their choice.
The holders of fellowships and scholarships in the Graduate School follow below first.

Twenty-one Groups Select 513 Jayhawkers
Twenty-one honorary organizations of The University of Kansas have elected 513 students to membership during the 1958-59 school year.
The University Senate prescribes the qualifications that any organization must meet for designation as an honor society. The Senate Code says that "Honorary organizations recognized by The University of Kansas shall be classified into three types:(1) Scholastic Honor Organizations, (2) All-Student Honor Organizations, and (3) School and Departmental Honor Organizations.
"A Scholastic Honor Organization shall be so designated only it it complies with the following requirements:
"No student shall be eligible to membership until he has a standing at least equivalent to a second-semester junior; provided, however, that a student may be elected during the first semester of his junior year if he has attained an all-university grade-point average of at least 2.5.
"No undergraduate student shall be admitted to membership who has an all-university grade-point average of less than 2.0. No graduate shall be admitted who has not completed at least one semester of graduate work with a grade average of B or better."
The Senate Code defines All-Student Honor Organizations as those choosing members from all schools and departments, and for which scholarship may be a factor, but exceptional scholarship may not be necessary.
The Senate Code defines a School or Departmental Honor Organization as one selecting members on the basis of commendable work done in a specific school or department, but which does not meet the requirements of a Scholastic Honor Organization.
All groups whose new members are listed below meet the Senate requirements of Scholastic Honor Organizations, except Mortar Board and Sachem, which are All-Student Honor Organizations.
