13A. For matriculation subjects which are continued in the University, credit may in some cases be obtained by recommendation from the heads of the departments concerned, based upon creditable college work. [See $57.]

REGISTRATION AND ATTENDANCE.

14A. No student of the University shall undertake any work or examination with a view to credit for a University degree without registration for such work or examination with the Recorder of the Faculties; such registration must be accepted by the proper Faculty before the work proposed is undertaken. Students of good standing with a limited amount of regular class work may be permitted, on the basis of private study outside of University classes, to take certain matriculation or University examinations for the purpose of gaining advanced standing, but in all such cases the authorization of the proper Faculty must be secured by written petition before preparation for such examination is begun.

14B. All students except intrants shall register their choice of courses to be pursued in any half-year on blanks provided for the purpose, on the first Thursday of the first half-year, and on the first Monday of the second half-year, at the Recorder's Office, or at such place as may be designated for the purpose. Registration at a later date can be effected only through special application to the Dean of the College in which the student is enrolled. A fee of two dollars is charged for late registration.

15. All intrants must register with the Recorder of the Faculties their study-lists for the first half-year on or before the second Monday of that half-year.

Students in year-courses must register with the Recorder for such courses in January as well as in August.

Students are sometimes permitted to register for year-courses in the second half-year without having been registered in the first halfyear. In such cases credit is given for the work of the second half-year only.

The names of students who fail to comply with Regulations 14A, 14в and 15 will not appear on the official class-rolls.

16. No person will be admitted as a student to the exercises of any professor or instructor, except as authorized by the official Certificate of Registration furnished to each student by the Recorder, subject to the approval of the proper Study-Lists Committee.

17. All undergraduate students shall upon admission to the University, report immediately to the officers of the Department of Physical Culture for physical examination and measurements and for assignment to work in the Department.

18. Every student is required to attend all his class exercises and to satisfy the instructor in each of his courses of study, in such way as the instructor may determine, that he is performing the work of the course in a systematic manner.

19. Any instructor, with the approval of the President, may at any time exclude from his course any student who, in his judgment, has neglected the work of the course. Any student thus excluded shall be recorded as having failed in the course of study from which he is excluded, unless the Faculty shall otherwise determine.

CHOICE OF STUDIES.

[The rules governing the choice of studies of regular students are stated in the description of the curricula of the several colleges.]

28. Special Students have free election, subject to the requirement that they confine their attention to some special study and its related branches.

29. Limited Students have all their studies elective, but may take not more than thirteen units a week.

30. In addition to the foregoing requirements of time to be spent in the class-room, laboratory, and field, undergraduates are required to take the exercises in physical culture; and able-bodied male undergraduates, including special students, are required to take the courses in military science. Exemption from the courses in military science and physical culture is granted only by the proper Faculty, upon the written petition of the student.

31. A Regular Student or Student at Large, who is required to repeat any of his studies, may be required or allowed by the Faculty of his College to take a smaller amount of unrepeated work than the minimum laid down in the preceding sections.

32. No student will be permitted to enter upon the study of any subject if the officer of instruction in charge of that subject is satisfied that by reason of lack of preparation he is not competent to undertake it. This rule takes precedence of all others.

Change of Status, Course, or Studies; Examinations. 77

CHANGE OF STATUS, COURSE, OR STUDIES.

33. Any student who desires to be transferred from one college to another, or to change either his status or any study once undertaken, or to drop any study, must obtain consent to do so from the Faculties and the particular professors or instructors concerned. Such consent must be sought of the proper Faculty or Faculties by petition, accompanied by the approval of the professors or instructors directly concerned, and presented through the Recorder of the Faculties.

34. No such transference or change will be granted to a student whose standing is unsatisfactory, except it be shown, to the satisfaction of the Faculty or Faculties concerned, that the proposed transference or change effects an improved adjustment of his course of study.

35. A Student at Large, Special Student, or Limited Student, may at any time attain the status of Regular Student by satisfying all the requirements imposed upon the regular members of the class he desires to enter.

36. No Regular Student who, by reason of delinquency in scholarship or neglect of duty, fails to maintain the Regular Status, will be allowed to become a Special Student, or a Student at Large.

EXAMINATIONS.

38. Final examinations-and also, in the case of year-courses, mid-year examinations-will be assigned for all undergraduate courses, excepting only such seminary, laboratory, and other courses as shall have been exempted by authorization of the Academic Council, and shall have been so listed in the Annual Announcement of Courses. They will, so far as practicable, be conducted in writing, and a maximum time will be assigned beforehand for each, which no candidate will be allowed to exceed. Except in laboratory courses, the time for examination sessions shall not be more than three hours. Mid-year reports on year courses shall be regarded as provisional, for the information of StudyLists Committees only, except that in case of records lower than third grade, the student shall be notified of his deficiency, through the Recorder's Office, in the usual manner.

38A. No student will be excused from assigned examinations. 46. No book, manuscript, or other source of information, shall be brought into any examination-room, except by the explicit order of the examiner. Nor shall any student, in the course of an exam

ination, have any communication with another student for any reason whatever.

48. Any student tardy at an examination will be debarred from taking it, unless an excuse for such tardiness entirely satisfactory to the examiner be rendered.

48A. A fee of five dollars is charged for every special examination. Any supplementary or deferred test required by an instructor of a student for the purpose of making up a course left "incomplete" is regarded as a special examination. Students taking two or more such examinations in courses taken during any one half-year will be charged not to exceed ten (10) dollars for all such examinations, instead of being charged at the rate of five dollars for each examination.

48B. Application for examination for advanced standing on the basis of work done before entrance to the University should be made to the Recorder of the Faculties upon entrance to the University.

For examination for the removal of matriculation deficiencies, see $52.

GRADES OF SCHOLARSHIP.

49. The results of examinations, together with term work when a record of the latter is kept, will be ranked and reported to the Recorder in five grades. The 1st grade denotes marked excellence. The 2nd grade indicates that the student's work has been thoroughly satisfactory. The 3rd grade denotes a pass. Courses in which students have obtained a 4th grade will not be credited to them, except upon the condition of passing a reëxamination. The 5th grade indicates failure and the necessity of repeating not only the examinations of a course, but also the regular work, in accordance with §55 of these Regulations. The report in case of absence from an examination, or of failure to perform any of the allotted tasks in a given course, is incomplete. Work so reported must be made up within a year.

Reëxaminations are permitted only for the purpose of removing deficiencies. Students who have received Second Grade or Third Grade in a given course are not allowed reëxaminations for the purpose of improving their grading.

CONDITIONS AND FAILURES.

50. For the removal of conditions, students shall have the privilege of taking the regular mid-year or annual examinations in the subjects in which they are conditioned. Examinations may be held

at other times only by the special permission of the Academic Council and on payment of a fee of five dollars.

52. Opportunity for the removal of matriculation deficiencies is offered at the entrance examinations each year in August and in January.

53. Any undergraduate who, at the end of any half-year, fails to pass in at least eight units of new work, including Physical Culture, will be dropped from the roll; provided that any student who for reasons of exceptional urgency is permitted to register for less than eight units of new work, will be required to pass in all of the units so registered, or will be dropped from the roll.

A Regular or Limited Student dropped from the roll on account of deficiencies will have an opportunity to reënter after an interval of one half-year; provided, that during the interval he pass such reëxaminations as are necessary to give him credit for at least five units of new work registered during the last half-year of his attendance; and provided, further, as a condition of further university work, he first remove all matriculation deficiencies for the status of a Regular Student.

The prescribed work in physical culture, two units each halfyear, may be included in the eight units required to maintain good standing, but not in the five units required for reinstatement in accordance with the requirements of the preceding paragraphs.

[NOTE.-A unit of registration is one hour of a student's time at the University weekly, during one half-year, in lecture or in recitation, together with the time necessary in preparation therefor; or a longer time in laboratory or other exercises not requiring preparation. Credit for 124, or more, units, distributed according to the requirements of the College in which the student is enrolled, is necessary for a degree.]

Any Special Student who incurs a deficiency may, on recommendation of the Committee on Special Students, be dropped from the roll.

55. Any undergraduate student who is reported as having failed in an examination, or who, after being conditioned, does not pass the reëxamination for the removal of the condition, will be required to repeat every such deficient subject with the class that next takes it; unless, on recommendation of the officer of instruction in charge, the Faculty shall permit him to review a subject in which he is thus deficient with the assistance of an acceptable private tutor; in which case he will be excused from attending the recitations, but will be required to take the regular examinations at the end of the year or half-year.
